Ocean colour scene - riverboat song

[scoobystig]

Hey guys

Don't suppose anyone knows the bass run in this song after the solo

There's a walk up on the bass and I'm sat here trying to piece it together, unfortunately I can only currently practice unplugged and with earphones in my iPad so it isn't too easy to pick out the notes

Thanks

It's fairly simple - basically minor 3rds triangle for the main riff - i.e A to C - check Songsterr.com for the chords.

Hi thanks. Yeah Ive got all the main song it's just the run up at the end
It's at 3m 47. There's no tab I can find anywhere for it

Hey scoob, you're not that far from me - do you ever get to Witney ?

We've been playing this for over 3 years or so now. You're welcome to come round and go through it here

I cheat on that section, cos no one cares Everyone's boggling at the gitwrist so i just make life easier for me with most bass lines
