Song: "Elephant Elephant"
Artist: Evelyn Evelyn
Album: Evelyn Evelyn (2010)
Transcribed by: Freeze1186 ([email protected])
Notes: The bass for most of the chords is doing an "Oompah" kind of rhythm of quarter notes alternating
between the root and fifth of the chord. For example on the F chord, the bass is playing F,C,F,C
and for the C chord, it plays C,G,C,G, etc. I'm going to write those out as F and F/C, C and C/G, etc.
The easiest way to play that is to play the all the chords as barre chords and move your first finger to
get the changing bass notes. There's a lot of little bass runs between chords too, but they're easy.
You can figure them out on your own, just use your ears.
