Soto Copyright 1982 Core Music Publishing Tab v2.01 2002-05-21 The bass synth which opens the song continues and plays throughout the verses and they seem to be various arpeggiations. It's buried too far in the mix & too random to tab completely so only the essential opening 4 measures are tabbed here.
