"Overwhelming" (Bass) As recorded by Everclear on "Songs From An American Movie Volume Two, A Good Time For A Bad Attitude" Tabbed by Ashton Bailey (ashton_bailey@hotmail.com), Jason P (jasonsevercleartabs@hotmail.com) and Will Donovan (everclear792@msn.com) VERSION 1 - tabbed by Ashton Bailey and Jason P Key: pm = palm mute \ = slide up towards the neck / = slide down towards the body fb = feedback h = hammer b = bend string r = ring (let string ring) Tuning Regular for the original (ie Art's Solo version), and a half step down if you want to play along with the new version, but it still sounds close in regular. I will be tabbing it in regular tuning.
