Lyrics:
(Verse)
when I look into your eyes
I see something I need inside
Part of me without a soul
Not attached to my feet
Then I noticed that you looked at me in my direction
Why can't you see the ties that are pulling me apart
Can't say what I feel inside
It's something I can't hide
I can't believe your with someone who just isn't me
I know that this is just another infatuation
But just promise me that you won't just stomp upon my heart

(Chorus)
I know it aint a fact
It doesn't say it anywhere
So your mind is off track
And I don't know what to do
It turns out you don't even care
So you do not have a clue

(Verse 2)
It doesn't seem to be
A change in heart to me
I can't believe my eyes
Or what I see
I just can't do
That feeling coming from you
It just can't hide
I guess I'll just have to show you mine

(End)
I'll stay around and send
And I will say again
I can't be nothing more to you than just, "your lonely friend"
If you stay around I'm gone
I'm going mad
I'm going mad
I need my ice cream bar

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! 🎸
