Screw Up Your Courage bass

Screw Up Your Courage

This is a really cool bass part that I decided to figure out for myself, so I thought
I'd share it on here. I learned it all by ear, so it may not be perfect.

I couldn't pin down all the improvised notes throughout, but it sounds right to me.

I've only heard the one album by A Weather (Cove), but I really like it, so if you 
haven't heard of it, check it out at their website: http://www.aweathermusic.com/home/
(It is pretty script-heavy, so if you've got a slow/bad Internet connection, it may not load)

Questions, comments, corrections, etc. can be sent to my Email (above)
