I play this using the Digitech Bass Synth Wah - Bass Envelope Filter on Type setting 4
(Synth 2), Sens at max, Control at 9 (3:00), and Range at max.
G|--9-7------7------------9-7------7---------|
D|------10-9---107~~~~--------10-9---107~~~~-| 107 = 10 7
A|-------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------|
G|-------------------------------------------|
D|--5-7-2~~~--02----------5-7-2~~~--022------|
A|--------------0~~~~------------------0~~~~-|
E|-------------------------------------------|
That's the main part. Repeat x4.
The next part I improvised, it's not really how it goes but here's how I play it:
G|-------------------------------------------9-------------------------|
D|--3--9--15--12-10-12--12-10-7~--7/15--15\10---12-10-12~-10/12-1212---|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/o/omar_rodriguez-lopez/zim_btab.html ]
Repeat the main part x2. Then the next part is similar to the previous, again, I just improvised:
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--3--9--15--17-15-17--15-10-12~-12~12/15~-17-15-12-14--14-10-7~-7/12-|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
Then comes the end part, somewhat improvised but this part is pretty close to what it
actually is:
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--3333-37777-779999999--3333-37777-7799999999--3333-377777-----------|
A|----------------------------------------------------------99999999---|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
Repeat x2 then finish with:
G|---------------------------|
D|---3~~~--------------------|
A|--------9~~~--0~~~~~~~~~~--|
