ok im a new bass player attempting to teach myself and im lookin at the tab for red hot chili peppers gong li(one of my fav songs) and i found the tab for it and im not really understanding it like in the first verse theres 3 0's meaning an open string but ive been listening to the song like over and over again and i cant hear the 3 open strings and when i try to play it it doesnt make sense

If you can't hear the notes being played, there's a good chance that the tab is wrong. Tabs are not set in stone and correct. They're transcribed by ear and so it's easy to make mistakes.

A lot of tabs are off and plenty are just plain wrong. There are often a number of different tabs for popular songs so check them all out and see what sounds right. Here is a good site if you haven't already seen it. http://www.mxtabs.net/basstabs.php
