Title: HeadStrong
Artist: Trapt
Album: 

Instrument: 5 String Bass

Tabbed by: Craig Wetzelberger (Mynamesucks@aol.com)

Tuning: Standard (B E A D G)



Figured this out by ear when I could not find a bass tab for this song.
Not totally right but it should give you the idea.  
You could play this on a 4 string if you tune the E 
string down to B and play the one note played on
the E string up higher somewhere.  Whatever floats your boat.
Key:
~ (hold out note)
/ (hammer on or pull off)
