Bass part by Michael Balzary (Flea)
Tabbed by Dan Bogosian (UtBDan)

NOTE: This is exactly what Flea plays on the "Off the Map" DVD.
If you want to know what's changed, he plays a part before the chorus, the chorus has
slightly, and the bridge has changed A LOT.

fret and let go of the string so it plays an open.
