Get Free - Major Lazer
Main riff throughout the whole song.
Based on the G - A - Bm - G chord
progression. This sounds like it is played on a muted bass one octave higher
than written here but sounds good enough on guitar if you play it like this.
There are variations on this theme throughout the song. Just make you own
but try to accentuate the up beat to give it that reggae vibe.
