Song: Motorcycle Drive By

Artist: Third Eye Blind

Album: Third Eye Blind on Elektra records

Lyrics and Music: Stephen Jenkins

Tabbed by: PeonObserver

 

 

I've never seen a bass tab for this song, and as

simple as the chord progression seems to be, the

bass part is pretty extensive and incredibly fun

to play with all the little runs and things.

 

I primarily play guitar and this is my first tab

for bass so feel free to e-mail me with comments

or questions at CorganFanatic@hotmail.com

Until the distortion, the bass part is very bouncy and

almost swung, so play around with timing.
