Here I have posted the complete bass tab to the song "Faith"
by the Cure from the album "Faith."
Words and Music by Robert Smith, Simon Gallup, and Lol
Tolhurst. Transcribed by Caley Barker.
The bass to this song may have been played on a six-string
bass, as many of the songs on "Faith" were, either by Robert
or Simon. I'll just transcribe it as a standard 4-string
bass.
Rhythm figure 1:
G--7--7--7--5---5--5--5--4--4--4---2--2--2--2-------------

This is the entire bass tab to "Faith." Just listen to the
album to see where each rhythm figure fits in. They go in
the order in which I posted them. Please send any comments

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.
