No Joy, No Strength" James Hall

[admin]

First of all, I do not recommend this song for anyone who can't run a bass line well. Shoot, it was hard for me and I can run bass lines pretty decent. Anyways, I didn't put in all the bass runs cuz it's too many to type out. I just supplied u wit da main chords and bass lines. Enjoy!!!
