The bass line to A Forest is pretty simple. There isn't a whole lot to it.
To start with, we have the main guitar riff:
(Main Guitar Riff:)
E|>------------------ Eventually in the song, the drums come in.
B|>------------------ It's after two repeats of this guitar riff,
G|>------------------ AFTER the drums come in, that the Bass comes in
D|>---7----3---2---3-
A|>-0----0---0---0---
E|>------------------
And in the Bass comes: On only two strings (Yes, those are repeat signs.)
|| G A A G A A A C C A C C E F F E F F C D D C D D ||
||* A>-------------------3-3-----3-3-------------------3-5-5---3-5-5-- *||
||* E>-3-5-5---3-5-5---5-------5-------0-1-1---0-1-1------------------ *||
|| ||
This bass line repeats (over and over and over) until in the "peakish"
feeling in the bridge (you can hear where) it changes into this:
A>-------------------3-3-----------------------------5-5----------
E>---5-5-----------------------------1-1--------------------------
I've written it parallel to the main line to show the timing relationship
between the two. To end the song, just rapidly plung the A(fretted: E>-5-).
I'm not sure if there are any variations on the main bassline anywhere.
I didn't hear any striking or noticeable: Corrections always welcome.
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official CURE tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
