BASS TAB:
BAND: Garbage
ALBUM: Garbage
SONG: Only happy when it rains
TAB BY: Paul Simpson (paul_the_bass_guy@hotmail.com)
Tuning is E, A, D, G (standard) I only wrote down the A and E strings
because the others aren't used.
/ = Slide up
\ = Slide down
There are no rests between each line but I wrote each line separately
to make it clearer.
VERSE 1:
A-------2--------2-----------
E--4------4-2-4---2-2-2-2-
1 2 3 + 4 +1 2 3 4
