Ok so I loved the first tab (well sone BassistGal), but I realised some bits weren't 
and after working it out by ear, decided to add them. I'm new at tabbing so please share 
opinions :]
Note: I put this down as an intermediate because slap is not beginners play...at least 
my opinion.

\Slide Down

There's a fill I can't quite remember where (It's like 2am and I'm now sleepy and can't 
bothered to check). It's just before a chorus or end of it-into another- and its called '*Gliss'.
Gliss is short for "glissando". It's basically a huge slide up the neck but in this 
it ends on a D, making it a little more complex but practice as we know, makes perfect^

so we end on an F and slide all the way up to D and just sort of pop it and any notes on 
 D and A strings that we meet lol (sorry that's how i can explain it till I get the 
from my sight reading book later)...
It's sort of a theatrical thing Marcus is known to do...A LOT! lol have a go and mess 
a bit :]
G|---------------------------|

E|----------17\--------------|

* A glissando is a rapid slide through a series of consecutive tones in a scalelide 
The first and the last notes of a glissando are usually indicated so that you will know what 
passage to use.


Sorry for the "lesson" lol
Hope it was usefull :]
