SEEKING HELP- Dog Is Dead bass tabs

Hey all, I have an charity performance in the not too distant future and was hoping to have this track in somewhere:

Really love the basslines across most of their songs but my ability to play by ear is pitiful. I have searched all over and cannot find tabs anywhere. I was hoping someone at TB who's far better at tabbing by ear could help me?

Any help is hugely appreciated
 
This video isn't loading on my iPad now that I'm home, my gf is gone and i can't get on her laptop so unless someone tells me the name of the song I won't be transcribing this anytime soon. Besides, the Boston Bruins start their season in an hour and I'm chilling with a beer. Also I was hoping these guys were more like Tame Impala. Nice album cover tho.

okay sounds fair :D the song title is 'Get Low' by Dog is Dead, not sure if thats what you were asking I may have misunderstood?
 
Here's what I hear. I'd say it's 99% accurate. Try not to confuse time signature changes as notes. There are a lot of instances where there are two bars of 4/4 followed by an extra two beats or bar of 2/4. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.

Considering I transcribed it with a pair of cheap headphones through an iPad off youtube, I'd say it's pretty good. The part at 2:58 could have some debatable choices on the sixteenth note upbeats on two and four, but make sure you nail those downbeats E,C,G,D. You could probably throw in a couple power chords at the end of that section before going back to the main riff to end the song.
