Vanessa Carlton - Paint It Black Bass Tab

This is originally by the Rolling Stones, but Vanessa Carlton has put her own mark on
this classic.

Intro

G
D
A
E 5~ 5 5
Bend to get that cool hippyish sound before the drums come in.

Verse

G
D 7 7 7 7 2 2 2 2
A 5 7 5 7 5 7 5 7 0 2 0 2 0 2 0 2
E 5 5 5 5 0 0 0 0
On the "I see a red door..." part

Chorus

G
D
A 3 5 7 5 7 5 7 5 7
E 5 3 5 3
On the "I see the girls walk by..." part

Alternate Verse

G
D
A 5 7 7 7 5 7 7 7 5 7 7 7 5 7 7 7
E 5 3 3 3 5 3 3 3 5 3 3 3 5 3 3 3
On the "I wanna see it painted, painted.." part

Interlude

G
D 7~
A
E
Just before the "No more than my green sea..." part. Again, bend that A to get that trippyish

Sound. The following interlude is devoid of bass.

That's the jigsaw. All the parts are there. You just have to fit them into the right order. Good luck! And happy playing. It's quite easy actually. I think it's right. It sounds right anyway. Let me know if I've made any mistakes.
