I wrote some notes to clear some "strange" points here and there.
I tried to write down all the particular change of notes he plays everytime
I could.
Hope they're right and you'll enjoy it! :)
 
 
 
|--------------------------------|--------------------------------|
|--------------------------------|--------------------------------|
|--------------------------------|----------------3-------5-5-----|
|3-------1-1-----0-------2-2-----|3-------1-1---------------------|   
 
NOTE: version 0-2-2 and 3-5-5 are both good and interchangeable, even when
playing them together. Applies for for any time you find them

|3-------1-1-----0-------2-2-----|3-------1-1---------------------|  
 
As I said before for 0-2-2 and 3-5-5. I did put one and another for fun.
All the variations are "almost" exactly the same that Tom plays in the
original album version of the song
 
 
|--------------------------------|--------------------------------|
|--------------------------------|--------------------------------|
|----------------3-------5-5-5-5-|----------------3-------5-5-3-5-|
|3-------1-1---------------------|3-------1-1---------------------|
 
 
|--------------------------------|--------------------------------|
|--------------------------------|--------------------------------|
|----------------3-------5-5---45|----------------3-------5-5-----|
|3-------1-1---------------------|3-------1-1---------------------| 
 
Intend that 45 as 4 then 5. I did put them so close just to indicate
they must be played faster, e.g. with a "hammer on"
 
|--------------------------------|

|----------------3-------5-5---3-|
|3-------1-1---------------------|

|------------------2-3-5-7-------|

      ...with the fashiooooon
 
(1st chorus)

|------------7---0-----0--0--------------3------3---------------8\|
|0---------7---7------------3---0-1-------------------------------|
Same example as above for that 45 = 4-5. In this case 3 and 3 are on
different strings...got it??? ;)

                                                 "...what we do toniiiiiight"
I'm not quite sure about the correct timing here
Some notes are stoppedand pay attention to the slide
 
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|----------------3-------/15\1---------------6---------1/6\1-|
|3-------1---------------------------4-----------------------|
 
The slided "15" is longer than what might be intended
 
 
|---------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------4-4-4-12\\\\\\\\\\\|
|3-------1-1----------------------------------------|
|----------------1-----1x1x1x1x1x-------------------| 
 
IMPORTANT!!! These notes ( the 4s )are anything but correct! :p That's coz
I couldn't define clearly which fret Tom played by doin' those little SLIDES,
though I'm pretty sure about the "12" sliding down very slowly (12\\\\\)
The "X" indicates a stopped note (think)
 
|--------------------------------|--------------------------------|   First
|--------------------------------|--------------------------------|   part:
|--------------------------------|--------------------------------|   MUTE!

|--------------------------------8-8---8\----8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8\------|
|0---2-3-3---3-5-5-----5---7---8---------1-1/----------------3-----|
 
Watch out for timing (up there, 2-3-3...3-5-5...) - Every time Tom plays this
part, he plays it in a slightly different way...I did my best to get 'em right :)
(Last note rings...)
 
Byez!

in fact the song is played on a 5-string bass, the notes are fine and it sounds good.5 stars

At the end of the instrumental part, those 1x1x1x1x1x1x seems to be a 5x5x5x5x5x5x on A string

valiant attempt, but there are alot of wrong parts throughout the tab. As well as what the previous poster noted: it's played on a 5-string, so the vast majority cannot be played unless you have a low B. What you tabbed works for the song, but its not what is actually there so it should only be considered as an 'alternate' version.
