LANDED (Bassline)
As recorded by Ben Folds
(From the 2005 Album SONGS FOR SILVERMAN)
Words and Music by Ben Folds
Arranged by Ben Folds
Transcribed by Sam Osborn
The verse is correct but the chorus and stuff are just the basics, as the song goes on
it gets much more into it so improvise a lot with sliding and repeating notes etc. The
bass player also uses the semitone before the note.
Listen to the CD.
(if there any bars that are blank such as the first one, it means there's a rest)
