Once Upon A Daydream


Tabbed by Ian Wakeham

There isn't a great deal to playing this song on the bass guitar. The trick is trying 
to emulate the "backwards" effect that makes the track sound so weird. Playing the odd 
slide here and there helps a lot. According to the Message In A Box music book for guitar, 
all instruments should be tuned up a semitone (sharp). However, the tab that follows is 
transcribed for a bass tuned at normal pitch.
