dave_bass5 Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Guys. Really need help with the above song. My Bass has just packed up at home and i cant get to my working bass until my gig on Sat but i need to learn the above song as a first dance. Could anyone be able to tab out (or just jot down) the notes of the Chorus for me. im pretty sure its based around E - Eb - Db - F# - B but there are some other notes played as well. Im just not going to be able to figure it out before the gig. Thanks for any help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I can get hold of a copy tomorrow, and refresh myself, I'll try and help you out. Cheers, Pete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamster Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 I found another arrangement - [attachment=4523:Everlasting_Love2.pdf] I haven't had time to sit down and check them both for accuracy. Hamster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Pete.[/quote] Thanks for the kind off but it was a joke. well, the bit about asking for help. This was just a one off as my Bass has decided to go on strike and i dont have my main one at home. Normally i don't have any problems with learning songs. Keeps me out of the kids way in the evenings.;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm clearly not with it, only having had 3 hours kip the night before last, a drive to Brighton and back yesterday, and then the dog getting me up at 4am this morning!

nig Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I did a spell in love affair in the 80's, the herbie flowers riff is fairly simple once you nail it,the intro has a decending bass with the first 5th being played twice, the third decending root and 5th, then 2 walking up scales, then the dodgy root note thing for the verses, a pleccy song ideally,you dont need tab, a good ear and a few run throughs should nail it, have fun.
