BEN bass

BEN

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                             BEN - Michael Jackson
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Walter Ian Kaye
E-mail: [email protected]

Tuning: standard

Played with a brief syncopation-like rest between notes.

Where I placed one note above another is where I am unsure of how to fret the
note; I am not a bass player, I just love the song. Fret it however you like.
