    ROYALS - Lorde
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Tabbed by: mmcguire1095

    Obviously, there's not really a literal bass guitar line in this song. I basically
    just took the bass notes from the chords and applied those. It still works nicely
    and sounds good though. It's really simple. It's pretty much the same for the
    entire
    song, mostly just groups of two notes held out. But as I said, the notes are really

    just the bass notes of the chords, so you can do whatever you really want as long
    as
    it fits the rhythm. This just seemed the most practical to me.

    So there you have it. Incredibly simple. Nothing to it really. As I said above,
    there's not really a technical bass part, so feel free to just use this as a guide
    and improvise with it. But this is just the basic structure of what the bass line
    would be.

    | / slide up
    | \ slide down
    | h hammer-on
    | p pull-off
    | ~ vibrato
    | + harmonic
    | x Mute note
