===============================================================================
(Intro x1)
Verse 1:
He said I'm fabulously rich,
c'mon just lets go.
She kinda bit her lip,
Geez, I don't know.
Bridge 1:
But I can guarantee
There'll be no knock on the door.
I'm a total pro,
that's what I'm here for.
Chorus 1:
I come from downtown.
Born ready for you.
Armed with will and determination
and grace, too
(Intro x1)
(Bridge x4)
Verse 2:
The secret rules of engagement
are hard to endorse
when the appearance of conflict
meets the appearance of force.
Bridge 2:
But I can guarantee
there'll be no knock on the door.
I'm a total pro,
that's what I'm here for.
Chorus 2:
I come from downtown.
Born ready for you.
Armed with skill and it's frustration
and grace, too.
(Outro x?)

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.

E|---1-1---1---3---|
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).
