Mr Big (LIVE VERSION) - Free
 Album - Free Story (Island)
 Music by Fraser, Rodgers, Kirk, Kossoff 


 Tab by the Exorcist (Matt K).  This is my own estimation of the song
 This is how I play it so there may be occasional extra fills not in the
actual 
 bass solo.
 
 Enjoy! If you learn to play this you'll be 10times the bass player at the
end!

 Remember to play the notes staccato during the solo at times to keep the
bouncy, 
 running stream of notes going.  Listen to the song to get an impression to
speeds,
 unfortunately I can't make this very implicit in the tab.

Verse "I work hard every day"...

This is the solo roughly, with a few extra notes thrown in here and there. 
This is probably not completely accurate, but it sounds very similar and
probably only 
needs one or two tweaks, if anyone has any suggestions?
