Not Afraid Bass Tab

This is the main riff, it is played through the whole song: just repeat it.

G |: ----------------|
D |: ----------------|
A |: 3-------6---1---|
E |: ----4-----------|

    Or you can play it like this:

G |: ----------------|
D |: ----------------|
A |: 3-------6---5---|
E |: ----4-----------|

    And really that's it. Please tell me if it needs to be corrected.

How to Read Bass Tab: A Beginner's Guide

1. Understanding the Basics

a. Strings:

Bass tab consists of horizontal lines representing the strings of the bass guitar. The lowest-pitched string (usually the E string) is at the bottom, and the highest-pitched string (usually the G string) is at the top.

b. Numbers:

Numbers on the lines indicate which fret to play on a specific string. For example, if you see "3" on the E string, it means you should press down the third fret on the lowest string.

2. Reading Bass Tab Example

In this tab:

• Play the note on the 1st fret of the E string.
• Play the open E string.
• Play the 3rd fret on the A string.
• Play the 1st fret on the A string.

        G|-----------------|
        D|-----------------|

3. Playing Techniques

a. Hammer-ons and Pull-offs:

Hammer-ons are represented by an "h" (e.g., 5h7 means play the 5th fret and hammer onto the 7th fret). Pull-offs are represented by a "p" (e.g., 7p5 means play the 7th fret and pull off to the 5th fret).

b. Slides:

Slides are often indicated by an "/" or "\\" between two numbers (e.g., 5/7 means slide from the 5th fret to the 7th fret).
