Trying to learn "Like An Angel" on bass. If anyone sees any tabs of it online, let me know :mrgreen:

The Lemon Drops album is mainly in e flat...so just learn to play it in E or detune bass one semitone.Starts on A string on bass.E note (7th fret),then B note on D string (9th fret),back to e note(A string) then slide up to 12 th fret on A string,play A then D flat on the D string(11th fret) and back to A(12th fret).Slide back down and repeat.Chorus is G(LOW e third fret),D played on the A string 5th fret and then A on low E fifth fret.

Hope this helps!They lived by me in Dudley and were a big part of my youth.

Dave-thanks so much!

The main bass riff was giving me trouble, I figured out the other parts :mrgreen:

That Eb if it is the low one would be enough to throw anyone learning by ear a bag of frustration.
