311 - Slinky Bass Tab

wow there are some real mutilations of
this song posted right now. Here's my transcription
I hope it's good.

It's on a 5 string a la p-nut. It's nothing that
can't be done on a regularly-tuned 4 string though.

listen to the recording closely cause timing is everything
i dotted notes that are played in quicker succession (ex: 3.3)
