I found the already existing bass tab as trascribed by Kieren Walters a
little bit difficult to follow if not perhaps inaccurate in parts. Well
I didn't get the album out, but this is how I play it and I think it's a
little more straight forward and you ought to get some mileage out of
it. I mean no offense Kieren, anyone who would take the time to
contribute to this cause is ok by me.

Bridge:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/stevie_wonder/i_wish_btab.html ]
Bb7 C7 Fm7 Abm7 Bb7 C7 Fm7 Bb7+

a-----------3-5----3-5-6-7-8-7-8--------------3-5---3-5-6-7-8--------
e--3-4-5-6------6---------------------------6-----6------------------
The Bb7+ is played like this: (This is an augmented dominant 7th chord)
(meanining it has a sharp 5 and a flat 7)
(very hip)
e---x-----------
b---9----------- pinky
g---9----------- ring
d---8----------- middle
a---x-----------
e---8----------- first finger
The Abm7 in the bridge, I think is correct but I'm not really sure.
