Pentamento Bass Tab

   
Just so this tab makes sense, remember that the song is in 5/4 time,
the notes basically just fall on the first (1) and fourth (4) beats of that rhythm

And there's another great Manteca song YOU can now stumble through! Yay!
Such a great song; a soothing Celtic breezy feel to it, so smooth that it doesn't even 
feel like it's in an odd time signature...
But yeah, just make sure you get locked in the 1 and 4 beat pocket, and everything will 
be fine!
Colleen played flute on this song at the Sean O'Sullivan theatre in St. Catharines a 
couple nights ago, and it sounded just magnificent - great job!
Jam on!
