This probably isn't completely right, but unless you happen to have a Carl Thompson bass, which I do not, the open notes don't sound right. As such I use the E on the B string instead of the open E, which is also easier for me to play. after the intro: s s pp s pp s s sss p |------|--------------------------------------| |------|--------55------55----------------5---| |------|:------------------------------------:| |------|-------------3-------3---3---333------| |-10\--|-5--5---------------------------------| another part: |-------------------------2h4p2--------| |-------------------------------23-----| |:2-0-2---3---2--0--2---------------3-:| |--------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------| ^ i think this is wrong yet another part: trill |---7--------------12-13----| |------9--7--9--------------| |---------------------------| |---------------------------| |---------------------------| last but not least: trill |---7--------------12-13----| |------9--7--9--------------| |---------------------------| |---------------------------| |---------------------------| trill |---9--------------14-15--------| |------11--9--11----------------| |--------------------------2-0-2| |-------------------------------| |-------------------------------|

The correct way to play the main riff for "The Ballad of Bodacious" by Primus is as follows: S=slap P=pop X=ghost note X=Sextuplet-ghost notes ---------------------------------------0-- -------2--2-----2--2-------------------- ------------------------------------------- --0-XX--X--3-X--X---3--3-XXXXXX--3 Hopefully thats right [it sounds right at least]. Enjoy and e-mail if it's wrong.

A lot of you guys were accurate on some parts. Here is the correct version. \ = Slide down Note: A lot of the mutes during the verses are really spontaneous, so you need to be quick. Most of it is slap/pop. Intro G-------------------------------------------------- D-------------------------------------------------- A-------------------------------------------------- E--0----------------------------------------------- let it ring, then Verse G----------------------------------------------------------0- D-------------------2-2---- 2-2---------------------------- A------------------------------------------------------------ E-12\--0-0-x-----------3-x-------3x 3 x---0h3x------ 3-0----- Bridge G------------------2h4p2---------------------------- D-----------------------------4--------------------- A-2-0-2-3\ 0-2---------------3\--------------------- E--------------------------------------------------- Then G---7---------9----12h13p12h13p12---------- D-------9--7------------------------------- A------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------ End/outro Pt. 1 Play riff above, then play this G--9----------------13h14p13h14p13--------------- D------11--9--12--------------------------------- A------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------ Pt. 2 G------------------------------------------------ D------------------------------------------------ A----7-5-7--------------------------------------- E------------------------------------------------ The part above is the last 3 notes of the song. It may be down a step (3-5-3) I'm not sure. I just tabbed this off of the top of my head. Anyway, there it is. Now, who's gonna ride Bodacious?
