The Flight Of the BumbleBee for 6 String Bass
Artist: John Petrucci
Tabbed by Justin Sepulveda with the help of Johann Lau

This is just one of the ways that John Petrucci will play Flight of the Bumble Bee.  I figured bassists
would love to play it as well, so I tabbed it out for you guys.  I have only been playing bass for about a
year and a half so if I can play it, any bassist can.  You just need to own a 6 string and you are set.
This is also a great speed exercise for both your left and right hands.  It is also a very impresive piece
to play for people.  Thanks goes out to my cousin Johann Lau for helping me tab this.
Any questions email them to YtseJamJMB@aol.com.
