This song is the sex
I've arranged the riff in chronological order with the song structure and
timestamps where necessary.
Notes:
C|--101010---|, etc - These are 10,10,10 not 1,0,1,0,1,0
* = section may be played at a lower octave
& = notes are optional
||---|| = bars to repeat
>Bass fill
ALL (Bass Fill)s ARE RIGHT BEFORE THE NEXT SECTION IN THE SONG STRUCTURE
They also appear in the middle of the chorus (you'll hear them all don't worry)

A baby could get this tab, but Scott Reeder's got a style that's very accented and
and you want to be doing that too to make it sound like the song.

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).
