/ Gary Moore / Wild Frontier (1987) / Over The Hills And Far Away bass tab

Title: Over the Hills and Far Away
Artist: Gary Moore
Album: Wild Frontier

Tuning: Standard (E A D G)

Tabbed by: Adam Lundberg (adamski_boy@hotmail.com)

Notes: In this tab I just tabbed the main riff coz
I can't hear how the fills are played.


The intro is just played by the guitar and the violin,
but if you wanna play it, like I do, it goes like this:

Then, play the first half of the intro like this:
(This part is also just played by the guitar and the
violin but I play it anyway).
G |--------------------------|--------------------------|
D |-------7-----9-----10-9-7-|9--------------7----------|
A |10-7-7---7-7---7-7--------|--7-7-7----7-9---10-9-7-9-|
E |--------------------------|--------10---------------

Then, play the second verse, same as first, and the prechorus again.
After that, play the second chorus.

Second chorus:

D |------------------------|------------------------|
A |5---5-5---5-5---5-5---5-|5---5-5---5-5---5-5-7-9-|
E |------------------------|------------------------|

Then, play the intro again, two times.
(This part is also not played by the bass but as I
said, I play it anyway).
Intro:
   2x
G | --------------------------|--------------------------|
D |.-------7-----9-----10-9-7-|9--------------7----------|
A |.10-7-7---7-7---7-7--------|--7-7-7----7-9---10-9-7-9-|
E | --------------------------|--------10----------------|

G |--------------------------|--------------7------------- |
D |-------7-----9-----10-9-7-|10-7-7-7-9-10---10-9-7------.|
A |10-7-7---7-7---7-7--------|-----------------------10-9-.|
E |--------------------------|---------------------------- |

After the second time, the guitar and the violin play a
very cool riff. The bass plays like this:
   7x
G | ------------------------ |9-7---7-------------------|
D |.------------------------.|----9---9-7-9-7----7------|
A |.------------------------.|----------------10---10-9-|
E | 0----------------------- |--------------------------|

That part can you almost play when your'e sleepin'.
I usually play it as the guitar. Like this:
G |--9-9-9---11-9---------------|--9-9-9---11-9------------|
D |9--------------12-9----------|9--------------12-9-12----|
A |--------------------12-10-12-|--------------------------|
E |-----------------------------|--------------------------|

G |--9-9-9---11-12-11-9-11-9----|9-------------------------------|
D |9-------------------------12-|--12-9----------9---------------|
A |-----------------------------|-------12-10-12--------------12-|
E |-----------------------------|------------------12-12-12------|

G |--9-9-9---11-9---------------|--9-9-9---11-9------------|
D |9--------------12-9----------|9--------------12-9-12----|
A |--------------------12-10-12-|--------------------------|
E |-----------------------------|--------------------------|

G |--9-9-9---11-12-11-9-11-9-7-|9-7---7-------------------|
D |9---------------------------|----9---9-7-9-7----7------|
A |----------------------------|----------------10---10-9-|
E |----------------------------|--------------------------|

After this part, the guitar solo comes. Just play like in
the verse. Then, play the prechorus.
   After that a little rest comes with just vocals and then
play the chorus 2 steps up. Like this:
   8x
G | ------------------------ |
D |.------------------------.|
A |.------------------------.|
E | ------------------------ |

G | ------------------------|------------------------|
D |.------------------------|------------------------|
A |.------------------------|7---------7-------------|
E | 2---------2-5---------5-|------------2---------2-|

G |------------------------|------------------------ |
D |------------------------|------------------------.|
A |7---------7-------------|5---------5-7---------7-.|
E |------------5---------5-|------------------------ |

Just play that til the song fades out.

THAT'S THE END!!!
