BUBBLEGUM

originally by kim fowley

bass tab by chris lawrence

mike watt covers the bass on this tune.

intro:

G----------------------
D---------------------- or just hang on either E.. you can do
A----7---7---7---7---7- subtle hammer-ons from the 5th fret to
E--0---0---0---0---0--- the 7th fret each time

and the end, slide up to:

G------------------------
D--14-14-14-14-12^14-14-
A------------------------
E------------------------

then:

G---------------------------
D---------------------------
A--5-7-10-5-7---------------
E-------------0-0-0-0-0-0-0-

verse:

G---------------------------
D--------------------------- X 2
A--5-7-10-5-7---------------
E-------------0-0-0-0-0-0-0-

G------------------------------------------------------
D------------------------------------------------------
A--5-7-10-7-12b-12-12-12r-10-7--5-7-10-5-7-------------
E------------------------------------------0-0-0-0-0-0-
                hold bend

repeat etc...

guitar solo:

G---------------------------------------------------------------
D-----------------14------14----14-----------14----------14-----
A--5-7-10-7-1214----14------14----14--12^14----14-12^14----14--
E---------------------------------------------------------------

G-------------------------------------------------------------------------
D-----------------------16-14------14^16-14-12----------------------------
A--1417-17-19-17-14-17-------------------------1417-19-17--14-14-12-10--
E-------------------------------0-----------------------------------------

G---------------12^14^12----12--12-14-12-14b-14-14-14-
D---------10-12----------14---------------------------
A--12-12---------------------------------------------
E-----------------------------------------------------

then the solo changes a bit, but i'm not going to devote anymore time
to tabbing a cover song, especially since watt's all over the place. the
above should be more than enough to indicate which key to play and which
notes to favour. 

back to main riff.

outro bit:

G----------------------------------------------------------------------
D----2---2---2---2---5---5---5---5---7---7---7---7---10---10---10---10-
A----------------------------------------------------------------------
E--0---0---0---0---3---3---3---3---5---5---5---5---8----8----8----8----
