Into The Ocean bass tabs
Song: Into the Ocean
Artist: Blue October
Album: Foiled
Bassist: Matt Novesky
Tabbed by: T. Webster(tydogg2443@aol.com)
This is a pretty simple song to play on bass. I didnt write up the
order/structure to the song, but its really simple to figure
out if you just play along with the song a few times. Just as a note...
You can also play the D3 notes in the verse and chorus as E1 instead.
D3 is the actual way to play it, but it will sound fine either way.
Outro should stay D3, though. Enjoy.
