North American Scum Bass Tab

North American Scum-LCD Soundsystem

Tabbed By Jack O'Higgins

This is a really great song taken Off the Sound Of Silver album. You need a lot of 
since the song requires constant picking. Start off slowly.
The first bass line has some sort of phaser effect with makes it really low but it'll 
just fine jamming along to mates normally.
I'm not excactly sure where the second bassline comes in but if you listen to the song 
sure you'll find it. I tabbed this on a live version so I'm not completely sure.
