Lipps Inc. - Funkytown

This song doesn't have a real bass, it's a synthesizer, but when you play it on the instrument it sounds nice and funky. It's pretty easy to play. [Intro & Verse] G|---6-----6-----6----| D|--------------------| A|3-----3-----3-----3-| E|--------------------| (x14) [ 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 ] "Well, I talk about it..." G|--------------------| D|---6-----6-----6----| A|--------------------| E|3-----3-----3-----3-| (x4) [ 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 ] After that goes: G|---12----12----10----10|---9-----9-----7-----7| D|-----------------------|----------------------| A|10----10-----8-----8---|7-----7-----5-----5---| E|-----------------------|----------------------| Pay attention to the tempo count, it's easier than you 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & think.

I've learned it in less than one hour. I think the tab is ok, if someone has a correction, please comment. Here you have a cover that I've done to the song (it's not perfect) where you can listen some improvisations that you can do to the song, like some slapping or slides between some parts of the song.
