Anyone know how to play that bass line for Get out of Denver from Bob Seger?

Thanks,

It's kind of like a variant on Johnnie B Good isn't it?  Possibly help having a few beers before attempting it at full speed!

OK I'll try that and see ... Thanks!

It's a very straight-forward line, played mainly at the 12th fret.

The I chord (A) is played at the 12th fret on the A string, the IV chord (D) is played at the 12th fret on the D string, and the V chord (E) is played at the 7th fret on the A string.

Play the note pattern A A F# E over the 3 chords.

Ok, I'll try that too thanks!  I have to learn this one by Monday

And those were much more constructive responses than mine.  I hadn't thought how important playing the tune so far up the neck might have been for the tone on the song.  Enjoy!  I have the 'Only so much oil in the Ground' line by Rocco Prestia to learn for Sunday!
