         Title : Funky Avocado - Bass Tab
        Artist : Micheal Hedges
         Album : Breakfast In The Fields
NOTES: I believe this is played on a five string bass by Michael Manring. 
Hedges detunes his top string to a low B to match the low B on the bass 
guitar. I haven�t seen this tab any where on the net, so enjoy all you 
hedges fans!!!
This is tabbed to show the various phrases of the tune it�ll be
up to you to work out the timing. This tab is not perfect but all
 the parts are there and I think is fairly accurate.
