Hi, first off, don't type in all caps because it makes people think you are "yelling".

Second, how do you think people find tabs? They do a search for them. You can start with our mirror of the basstabarchive, if it's not there, try yahoo or google.

Third, have you tried to figure the song out by yourself? If it is relativly simple, try that. Some tips are:

1 Try to be able to hum or sing the song. This helps get the song into your head and you can remember what it sounds like better, so you don't have to keep rewinding.
2 If it is a rock/pop/punk (especially punk) song, try using the major scale to decipher it. It is probably the most popular scale in those types of music.
3 Find a note that seems to fit the song, anywhere it doesn't really matter, then play all the scale tones around it, and see if any of them fit. A lot of the notes are not more than a 5th apart (try a search for the Circle of Fifths).




Good luck!

This site has several Sponge tabs, but I don't know if it has the one you requested. Check it out.
