: The Garden
Artist: Guns 'n' Roses
Album: Use Your Illusion 1
Bass performance by Michael 'Duff' McKagan
Tabbed by Joseph 'Boycie' Boyce
Notes: Remember that this song requires the bass guitar to be tuned to Eb (half-step down). Remember to use plenty of octave jumps and descending scales during the solos/outro for that classic Duff effect.

NOTICE: With the Intro and Verse, remember to change the ‘4’ on the D-string with a ‘3’ for the 2nd and 3rd of every four bars… so the pattern of this small variation is: 4 3 3 4 | 4 3 3 4 | 4 3 3 4 etc.
