-Life In General- Mike plays a lot of little riffs on his bass that riff as we come to it, which means you should read the whole file through before trying to play it ;] PLEASE NOTE!!! Considering how fast Mike's fingers fly, I won't put every single time he plays a note, but if you listen carefully you should be able to figure it out. (Sorry if this gets long, I'm trying to keep it narrow for low-res users.)

E B Not always nice not always mean, my room has never been seen clean A The way I feel is not always, not always how I seem E B The thoughts that form inside my brain don't always seem to entertain, A Cuz when I tell my company they think there's something wrong with me E B Riff 1a E B Riff 1b Fill 1 G|--------------------------------------| D|--9--9--9--7--7--7--6--6--6-----------| A|-----------------------------9--9--9--| E|--------------------------------------| Fill 2 G|------------------------------------------------| D|-----------------------6--7----9-9-7-7-6-6-7-7--| A|--9--9--9--9--9--9--9---------------------------| E|------------------------------------------------| E B A Fill 1 You don't know me like you think you do E B A Fill 1 You don't understand me and it's true E B Fill 2 I'm gettin' older day by day, ain't got time to get to everything E B Fill 2 Hold on tight, enjoy the ride, life is short so live it wisely E B Not always sick but often tired, sometimes having fun or wired, A Don't have someone, someone to call my own E B I'm not full of all the answers, I guess that I'm an okay dancer, A I just want to, to be left alone E B Riff 1a E B Riff 1b E B A Fill 1 You don't know me like you think you do E B A Fill 1 You don't understand me and it's true E B Fill 2 I'm gettin' older day by day, ain't got time to get to everything E B Fill 2 Hold on tight, enjoy the ride, life is short so live it wisely, (last four notes of fill 2) Live it wise-ly! OUTRO --Please note--> Riff a is different from the guitar part! Outro Riff a This is straight sixteenths (you should play each note eight times) G|------------| D|------------| A|--7--9--10--| E|------------| Outro Riff b This one is not sixteenths ;) but eight note triplets G|--------------------| D|--------------------| A|-----3--2--0--3--5--| E|--3-----------------| Here's how the whole outro goes: Riff a Riff b, hit an E [7th fret on the A string] and fall E E E E [open E string] -- play em short cause the guitar's palm muted Riff b Riff a Riff b Riff a Riff b, hit an E [7th fret on the A string] and fall --- There ya go! I'm proud to announce that this is also my first tab correction ever!! So, it may still be a little confusing. Send me feedback and corrections at *
