this record is played on bass using TWELVE BAR BLUES. a lot of late 70s/ early
80s artist use twelve bar blues on bass, so once u grasp the concept of them, see
if there are other tracks which use them, and then maybe write tabs of your own.
but anyway, enjoy.

Charles Edward Anderson "Chuck" Berry (born October 18, 1926) is an American guitarist, singer, and songwriter, and one of the pioneers of rock and roll music. With songs such as "Maybellene" (1955), "Roll over Beethoven" (1956), "Rock and Roll Music" (1957) and "Johnny B. Goode" (1958), Chuck Berry refined and developed rhythm and blues into the major elements that made rock and roll distinctive, with lyrics focusing on teen life and consumerism, and utilising guitar solos and showmanship that would be a major influence on subsequent rock music.
