Uptown Funk - Mark Ronson Tabbed by: Spunde Tuning: It's played on a 5 string. If you only have a 4, I'd suggest tuning to drop D and figure out how to play it that way. I put the counting in under each line (1e&a2e&a etc). This is a pretty nifty song. You don't really need to learn the variations throughout it. But some of them are really cool and fun to play. I'm pretty sure it's all 100% correct. Use slapping and popping at your discretion. Intro: 7 bar rest, then in the 8th bar do this- G|----------------------------------| D|----------------------------------| A|----------------------------------| E|-----------------------/10-10-----| B|----------------------------------| 1 e & a 2 e & a 3 e & a 4 e & a | 8 bar rest.
