Brown Sugar by Rolling Stones It was hard to hear exactly what Bill Wyman was doing here since the original recording is a bit mushy but I tried to transcribe a bass line consistent with his style. Tabbed by: BASSteve Tuning: EADG Time signature: 4/4 r = rest (listen for duration) ||= measure gets repeated (see number of times above measure, e.g. 4x) *My tabs are meant to be read in conjunction with listening to the song. In other words, there are no specific notations to account for note/rest duration. However, you will find that I've made an attempt to strategically space the notes and rests within their respective measures in order to represent the appropriate durations.
