"Lovesong" by the Cure--bassline

One of The Cure's best known songs (if you don't know it, where have you been?!), & everyone loves it (if you don't, then what're you doing here?) but I've only recently noticed how cool the bassline is, so here it is, & I hope it's right!! Once you get the hang of it & it gets repetitive, sing along!!

repeat this figure from beginning & throughout verses several times...if you know the song, you know what to do

{0}=there might be extra strokes on this note at times, so just listen to the rhythm or add extra ones if you want

D-------7-9-10---------------------------7-7-9-|

Chorus--rhythm might be a little different at times, but notes should be correct
