Standard Tuning (E, A, D, G)
Hi there! I'm a newbie at the bass guitar so I'm sure this is not 100% accurate, but I believe this is a nice approach to play along with the song, keep practicing and enjoy the ride fellow bat!
This is an easy but damn fun song to learn:
Hit the first note in each pair once and then jump to the other note to attack it repeatedly
for example:
In
A|—3—4——————||
You only hit 3 ONCE and then 4 a bunch of times ( I think It may be 12 or 13 times not sure about it) get it by ear, you will have fun while doing it.
G|————————————————————————————||
D|——————————————————————————— ||
A|—3—4————9—11——————————7—9———||
E|———————————————0—5——————————||
Repeat during the whole song.
By the way if you wanna do the little bright parts during the verse it goes like this (but this part is played by the guitar)
G|————————————————————————————||
D|—————6—7—6—7—6————————————— ||
A|—6—6———————————6————————————||
E|————————————————————————————||
And that's it! Keep being an alien!
Bass tablature (tabs) is an easy way to learn songs without needing to read traditional sheet music. Here’s a quick guide to understanding the symbols and techniques commonly found in tabs:
Each line in a tab represents a string on your bass:
Numbers on the lines indicate which fret to press. For example:
G|-------------------|
D|-------------------|
A|---3---------------|
E|-------------------|
This means you play the 3rd fret on the A string.
Play the first note by picking it, then press down on a higher fret with another finger without picking again.
G|-------------------|
D|-------5h7---------|
Pluck a note and then "pull off" your finger to let a lower fret ring.
G|-------------------|
D|-------7p5---------|
Move your finger up (/) or down (\) the fretboard while maintaining pressure.
G|-------------------|
D|-------5/7---------|
G|-------7b9---------|
G|-------7~----------|
Tabs don’t always indicate timing, so listen to the song while reading the tab. Wider spaces between numbers mean longer pauses, while closer numbers indicate quicker notes.
Tabs are a great tool to learn songs, but mastering the techniques takes practice. Listen carefully to the original track and play along to lock in the rhythm. Don’t rush — smooth, accurate playing is more important than speed. Happy jamming! 🎸
