I've searched bass tabs for this songs for a very long time and I found nothing, so I
to work it out on my own. It's my first tab in fact, so there can be some mistakes,
in solo part, I don't know how correct it is, but it sounds really good.
Bass enters in pre-chorus, when drums and guitar comes in.
G|-------|-------|--------||----------|----------|-----------|--------||
D|-------|-------|--------||*---------|----------|-----------|-------*||
A|-3--55-|-3-----|-5--3-5-||*---------|------5--5|-3--3-5-7--|5--55--*||
E|-------|----55-|--------||-3--3-2--2|-0--0-----|-----------|--------|| x2
Can't you see it... Carrie...
After the chorus
G|--------|-----4h5p4-------------|
D|--------|----5------5-4h5p4h5-5-|
A|-------2|-3---------------------|
E|-5-55---|-----------------------|
I'm not sure about this fill, I'm not sure even if it is bass or guitar, but sounds good.
Second verse:

D|--5-4--------|-------|-----------|--------|
A|------7--777-|-5-3--3|------2--02|-3--3-5-|

D|--------|-------|----------|-----------|
A|-7--777-|-5-3--3|-----2--02|3--3-5--55-|
E|--------|-------|-5-5------|-----------|
It all takes time...

How to Read Bass Tab: A Beginner's Guide
1. Understanding the Basics
a. Strings:
Bass tab consists of horizontal lines representing the strings of the bass guitar. The lowest-pitched string (usually the E string) is at the bottom, and the highest-pitched string (usually the G string) is at the top.
b. Numbers:
Numbers on the lines indicate which fret to play on a specific string. For example, if you see "3" on the E string, it means you should press down the third fret on the lowest string.
2. Reading Bass Tab Example
In this tab:
- Play the note on the 1st fret of the E string.
- Play the open E string.
- Play the 3rd fret on the A string.
- Play the 1st fret on the A string.

A|---------3-------|
E|---1-1---1---3---|
3. Playing Techniques
a. Hammer-ons and Pull-offs:
Hammer-ons are represented by an "h" (e.g., 5h7 means play the 5th fret and hammer onto the 7th fret). Pull-offs are represented by a "p" (e.g., 7p5 means play the 7th fret and pull off to the 5th fret).
b. Slides:
Slides are often indicated by an "/" or "\\" between two numbers (e.g., 5/7 means slide from the 5th fret to the 7th fret).
