The Waiting Bass Tab - Tom Petty






Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers
The Waiting (Standard Tuning: EADG)

::Okay so here's how I believe the song goes:: :Slide up /:Slide down
{H}:hammer on {P}: pull off

P.S., the sliding in the song isn't exactly needed, but the bass player does slide in 
song, it's up to you.

Intro: In the very beginning of the song do some sliding on the A string.
