Cruel Summer

Here is another 80's song with a great synth-sounding bassline, although i prefer the
rap remix that can be found on the Blue Crush soundtrack over the original. P.S. forget
the Ace of Base version its a bit different. Playing it tuned down a half step is a lot
easier i noticed since you can use the open A string during the fast parts. The chords
were easy enough to figure out so i included them as well. I'm still working on the main
melody so that should up soon too. Please vote too peaceeee.


chorus:

   C#m             A               B               A

Gb|------------------------r------|-------------------------------|
Db|------------------------e------|-------------------------------|
Ab|5-------3-------5-------s---5--|1-0-1---3---1---3-------0------|
Eb|------------------------t------|-------------------------------|

   1   &   2   &   3   &   4   &   1   &   2   &   3   &   4   &

note: there are a few variations of this bassline in the some of 
      the choruses. this is the main one and the rest have only
      very minor changes.

verse:

   C#m             B               A               B

   1   &   2   &   3   &   4   &   1   &   2   &   3   &   4   &
