Turn It Out Bass Tab

First off, I don't like the other tabs that have all of these songs in regular tuning.
changes the tone of your bass, and the tone of the song.  Thusly, I've written out every
song on the You're a Woman, I'm a Machine album, and others in drop tuning.  Don't play 
in regular.  They drop tuned it for a reason.  Hard to follow at once, this is
in order of the way the song was composed.

In the beginning, the open G (A string) is very important in the accenting of the song.
avoid playing it.

Tuning:  DGCF

Intro - The screaming noise is made with the pick scratching down then up the neck on
F string (G string other wise), and hitting open C twice before each swipe.
