SHAKING HELL

Bass tab by chris lawrence.

This tab is for the Kill Yr Idols EP version, recorded live.
Thurston's bassline is more defined on this performance than
on the studio version.

Intro:

G-----------------
D----------13-----
A-------12----12--
E--4^5------------

Honestly, Thurston may only play the A note there. If you choose
to play the riff that way, slide back to the A note from the 12th
fret region. Sometimes hammer-on from an open E.

Slide randomly up high for the next part.

Verse:

G-------------14--------------14-
D----------13--------------13---- etc
A--12\------------12\------------
E--------------------------------

after that for a while, start droning G:

G-------
D-------
A--10---
E---/---
  tremolo pick. slowly bend up and return

then move down to F# @ the 9th fret, and F at the 8th, still
trem picking.

then repeat a similar phrase, an octave higher (beginning at
12th fret of the G string).

"turn around":

G----------------
D--0-0-0-0-0-0-0- etc
A----------------
E----------------

then start droning A:

G--------------------
D--------------------
A--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0- etc
E--------------------

SHAKE.
