>From the "Unknown Pleasures" album

This is one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite bands.
This is the main part repeated all over the song but with slight changes
like the timing,
is never the same. James Hooks never played this bass with the same timing
twice, there's a
little of improvisation in it. Just play the intro like this and then play
the same
figure trying to change the timing a little. Just repeat the first part to
the end.
Main figure:
G:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
D:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A:--7---7---7-7-7--7-7--7-7-0-5----5-5-5--5--5-5-0--3--3--3--3-3-3-3-3-3--3-3-3--
E:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
G:----------------------------------
D:----------------------------------
A:--0--0-0-0--0-0-0--0-0-0-0-0-0----
E:----------------------------------
This is an example of the variations of the timing and improvisations like
the D at the end
of the figure like James Hooks used to do:
G:---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
D:---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A:--7--7-7-7--7-7--7-7--7-7-7-0-5--5-5-5--5-5--5-5--5-5-5-0-3--3-3-3--3-3-3--3-3--3-3-3--
E:---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
G:---------------------------------
D:---------------------------------
A:--0--0--0--0-0-5--5-5-5-5-5-5----
E:---------------------------------
Repeat this figure from the middle of the last solo to the end:
G:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
D:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A:--7---7---7-7-7--7-7--7-7-0-5--5-5-5--5-5-5--5-5--5-5-0--3--3-3-3--3-3-3--3-3--3-3-3--
E:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
G:----------------12-12--11-11--9-9--7-7----
D:----------------0- 0-- 0- 0-- 0-0--0-0----
A:--0--0-0-0--0-0---------------------------
E:------------------------------------------
And this is the end of the song:
G:--12-12--11-11--9-9--7-7---- G:--12-12--11-11--9-9--7-7-7----||
D:--0- 0-- 0- 0-- 0-0--0-0---- Repeat 7 Times D:--0- 0-- 0- 0-- 0-0--0-0-0----||
A:---------------------------- and then: --> A:------------------------------||
E:---------------------------- E:------------------------------||
Well....... there you go.
Enjoy!
