Dave Matthews Band

Rapunzel (Bass Tab)

-------------------

transcribed by Justin Marks

 

Here's Stefan Lessard's bass part for "Rapunzel" off of the new album.

Watch the 5/4 (Bridge), 4/4 (Verse), 6/8 (Chorus) alternations in the

time signatures, and subtle fill differences in the verse.

 

Bridge:

 

G ---------------9---7-

D -----------5-7---5---

A -5-5-5-5-8-----------

E ---------------------

 

Verse:

 

G -------------------------------------------------()-------------------

D -----------------------------(5-3---3----)-------()-------------------

A ---3-5-(5-3-2-3-5-3-2)---3-5-(----5---5-3)---3-5-()---3-5-3-2-3-2-3-2-

E -3---------------------3-------------------3-----()-3-----------------

 

The sections in parentheses are his fills, but since they change very

often, I'm only going to mention the two most common ones, and you can

figure out the rest for yourselves.

 

The chorus is really just a series of improvised arpeggio walks deriving

themselves from the D-Bb-C progression, so it's almost impossible to

give you a tablature for it. Just remember D-Bb-C and play around with

it.

 

Enjoy,

Justin Marks
