I want a right, so I have to fight…. Hey!

Refrain:

Meanwhile I noticed what you think is sharing
All proceeds are yours, we share all the labour.
You promised common riches, now we are your slaves
But my family one day will stand up and fight.

Take a seat my white friend, I now want to know,
There has been so much space, so much room to go
Let’s just live, somewhere else, here are so many places
Now I slash with my spade some justice in your faces.

Refrain

Don’t tell me I can go where I want,
When a chain keeps me bound to the confederacy
I become what I haven’t been yet,
My mighty ally’s whip leaves me dumb and lazy.

You rape my wife, take my land, keep me utmost low,
When I try to restrain you burn down my sown.
You don’t allow me to learn how to educate my races
Now I slash with my spade some justice in your faces.

Refrain

Our white friends introduced their selves as neighbours,
They lead us to their coalmine now we’re doing all the labours

I never had really guessed it would be this way,
To live in co—existence, a live confederated
Why can’t you just let us live, here are so many places
Now I slash with my spade some justice in your faces.

I want a right, so I have to fight…. Hey!

How to Read Bass Tabs

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:

1. The Basics

  • Strings and Frets:

    Each line in a tab represents a string on your bass:

    • The top line is the highest-pitched string (G on a 4-string bass).
    • The bottom line is the lowest-pitched string (E on a 4-string 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.

2. Common Techniques

  • Hammer-On (h):

    Play the first note by picking it, then press down on a higher fret with another finger without picking again.

    G|-------------------|
    
D|-------5h7---------|
  • Pull-Off (p):

    Pluck a note and then "pull off" your finger to let a lower fret ring.

    G|-------------------|
    
D|-------7p5---------|
  • Slide (/ or \):

    Move your finger up (/) or down (\) the fretboard while maintaining pressure.

    G|-------------------|
    
D|-------5/7---------|

3. Advanced Techniques

  • Bend (b): Push the string up or down to raise the pitch. Example: G|-------7b9---------|
  • Vibrato (~): Shake the string slightly after playing a note to create a vibrating sound. Example: G|-------7~----------|
  • Muted Notes (x): Rest your finger lightly on the string without pressing a fret and pluck for a percussive "click" sound.

4. Rhythm and Timing

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.

5. Slap and Pop

  • Slap (s): Strike the string with the side of your thumb for a percussive sound.
  • Pop (p): Pull the string away from the fretboard and let it snap back.

Practice Makes Perfect

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! 🎸
