Standard tuning

Comments: This is a fairly simple bassline. The only really cool part is
the chorus riff. That ostinato kicks major ass. (The Rhy. Figs here 
correspond to the Rhy. Figs in the guitar tab by the way.)

Key:
/    = slide up
\    = slide down
b    = bend (whole step)
b^   = bend (1/2 step)
b^^  = bend (1 1/2 steps)
pb   = pre-bend
r    = release-bend
t    = tap with righthand finger
h    = hammer-on
p    = pull-off
~    = Vibrato
*    = Natural Harmonic
#(#) = Trill
**   = Artificial Harmonic
x    = Dead notes (no pitch)
P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes)
(\)  = Dive w\bar
(/)  = Release w\bar
Tp   = Tap w\plectrum

GOODBYE
Paul Stanley

[Rhy. Fig 1]
[Rhy. Fig 2] (8x)

[Rhy. Fig 3]
Ain't it funny how the time slips away
'Cause now I'm leavin' and I wish I could stay
[Rhy. Fig 4]

[Rhy. Fig 3]
People wonder why they don't get a chance
They wait for music but they don't get to dance
[Rhy. Fig 4]

[Rhy. Fig 5]
Mmm, well now I know when my work is through
I'm gonna be with you
[Rhy. Fig 6]

[Rhy. Fig 2](8x)
So goodbye
Is only for now
'Cause I'm comin' back
I swear it somehow

[Rhy. Fig 3]
Ain't it funny how we win but we lose
We're given prizes that we don't get to use
[Rhy. Fig 4]

[Rhy. Fig 3]
People wonder 'bout the things that we've got
It seems so little but we know it's a lot
[Rhy. Fig 4]

[Rhy. Fig 5]
Now I know when my work is through
I'm gonna be with you, oh yeah
[Rhy. Fig 4]

[Rhy. Fig 5]
I'm gonna be with you
[Rhy. Fig 6]

[Rhy. Fig 2](16x)
So goodbye, is only for now
'Cause I'm comin' back, I swear it somehow
Oh, goodbye is only for now
'Cause I'm comin' back, I swear it somehow
Sing it

[Rhy. Fig 7]
I'm on the run
So I must go
And I hate to leave
I hope that you know

[Rhy. Fig 2] (8x)
Oh, goodbye it¥s only for now 
'Cause I'm comin' back, I swear it somehow

[Rhy. Fig 2]
(Repeat and fade)
