EVERCLEAR - "Overwhelming" Tablature

Official EVERCLEAR Tablature & Sheet Music »


"Overwhelming" (Bass)
As recorded by Everclear on "Songs From An American Movie Volume Two,
A Good Time For A Bad Attitude"
Tabbed by Ashton Bailey (ashton_bailey@hotmail.com) & Jason Pan (balaka@alphalink.com.au)

Key:
pm = palm mute
\ = slide up towards the neck
/ = slide down towards the body
fb = feedback
h = hammer
b = bend string
r = ring (let string ring)

Tuning Regular for the original (ie Art's Solo version), and a half step down if you want to play
along with the new version, but it still sounds close in regular. I will be
tabbing it in regular tuning.
