Funny Face Bass Tab - Red Hot Chili Peppers

Bass Tab


           *NOTE* This is a very tough song to play, especially w/ all the
             improvising that flea does. On the Chorus you can improvise
           yourself but i tried my best to get all the notes right and i
            think i did.***********************************************


Now since his is a track off a single, I'm guessing not many people are going to be 
at this tab, but hey, this song is awesome so here goes nothing. Listen closely and you'll 
that this tab is just about perfect.
