Getting Clean In The Dirty South - Sparks The Rescue Tabbed by: Dojix This tab is for bass players that are bored of playing just bass parts of songs as it also includes the tab for (as best as I can manage), the lead. Or at least a simplified, bass-friendly lead. A lot of the time during the song, you might find it better to slide between notes instead of trying to land each one, because jumbo frets on bass usually give a full note sound during slides instead of the guitar's gradual slide sound, and the notes might be too quick if you're not experienced. I like to slide the intro, it sounds pretty good like that. This is my first tab, so I probably got something wrong, primarily around the verses, as they are hard to hear. I must've changed the whole verse section at least 7 times by now, so if you can tab it more accurately yourself, I invite you to post a comment, and I'll add it to this tab. | / slide up | \ slide
