Sorry....

Thought I had it in my 80's section of tabs...but no go.....sorry....

This shows chords (not tabs) and I have not reviewed it for accuracy.....but maybe you can at least use it as a base for the bass......

The Musicnotes site has the sheet music. There's preview (you may have to install the Sibelius Scorch software).
I don't know if the bass line is accurate, but I'd tend to believe the chord structure is.

I figured it out, turns out the bass follows the guitar pretty closely. Just follow the chord progression and look at this for fills http://www.fretplay.com/tabs/l/lover...kend-tab.shtml

for the bassline? do you use GuitarPro? I find it a nice tool for such things. I think I used this GPR file for Working for the Weekend. It does follow the guitar closely.

if you don't have GPR, I think there are a number of places where it can be downloaded for free. I have to admit that I've found it invaluable, although you cannot always find GPS tabs for songs you want to do and in many cases ones there are incorrect, but that's true for any tab format.

My band opens with this one. Which part are you having trouble with? I never could nail the intro riff so I asked my keyboard player.

----------------------------------------
----------------------------------------
----2--2--2-----------0----------------
-------------0--1--2-----0--1--2-------

Let me know if you need other parts. This was the only one that gave me fits cuz I couldn't hear it clearly on the CD.

The bass plays the same intro riff as the guitar (as explained fourstring girl) by. The rest of the song follows the chord progression.

B,G

B,G#,E

Chorus:

G,D
G,D

Bridge:

G,C

Bridge #2:

G,B then G,C
