Something Is Not Right With Me Bass

(ver. 1)
Cold War Kids
-------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------


Tuning: standard EADG

This song is quite simple, there are only two different bass riffs.

[Main Riff]

G|--------------------------|--------------------------|
D|-----9-----9-----9-----9\7|-----7-----7-----7-----7--|
A|--------------------------|--------------------------|
E|--7-----7-----7-----7-----|--5-----5-----5-----5-----|
    1  +  2  +  3  +  4  +     1  +  2  +  3  +  4  +

G|--------------------------|--------------------------|
D|-----2-----2-----2-----2/9|-----9-----9-----9-----9--|
A|--------------------------|--------------------------|
E|--0-----0-----0-----0-----|--7-----7-----7-----7-----|
    1  +  2  +  3  +  4  +     1  +  2  +  3  +  4  +

Play this riff seven times, then rest for eight measures while the piano plays. 

There's a slide on the E string during the piano part, from open to 7th fret.
(It is 4 measures into the piano part)


[Bridge]
("Reach behind they could hardly find their spines")

Thanks to emerica10570 for corrections on this part. When I first
made this tab, I thought all the intervals were octaves,
but it turns out this part uses major 10ths and 11ths instead of octaves.

G|----8-8-----------|---6-6-----------|---2-2-----------|---8-8-----------|
D|------------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|
A|------------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|
E|--7-------------\-|-5-------------\-|-0-------------/-|-7---------------|
    1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +   1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +   1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +   1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +


Then play the main riff 5 more times. At the 5th time,
the drums stop playing, and the band slows down and fades out.
