VERSE: - I threw in a couple of lines of tab for the verse so you can see some of the licks Marty plays. Once you master this you can start improvising. - The bass line is key to the song. He often just plays the bass notes. - Notice I had to stretch the spacing on the last measure of the 2nd line of tab. There were too many notes to fit in and still keep the tab correct. Just concentrate on keeping the timing the same between ^ symbols. - Occasionally you will see the "x" symbol and notes on the same line. Here you need to slap the strings (with side of palm) at the same time you strum the notes. Takes awhile to get it down, but once you do it sounds great. (sometimes throws in D5)

G/Cadd9/D/D5 C9+11 then I'm glory bound...Yes I'm bound OUTRO: - For this section concentrate on moving the bass notes. The chord structure remains the same. The tab below is just for reference. You can mix up the order of notes between the bass notes. - I did not bother naming these chords, just called them C1,C2 etc.. C1 (0x4030) C2 (3x4030) C3 (X04030) C4 (x34030)
