I love all the little fills and details of the performance, in particular all the improvisation in the coda. Crazy Little Thing Called Love bass tab by Queen. I think you’ll agree this is a lot of fun to play. Start out learning the walking pattern exact, focusing on changing position before building your own lines. As the final four bars of the verse are repeated for the coda the bass walks around a lot more.
The fifth verse and Coda starts out the same as previous verses. Staring on the second swung quaver is about developing a strong sense of the pulse, start with a muted note on beat one and gradually remove it till the rhythm feels natural. During the D, G, D bars we get some more walking up to G and playing around the 1st, 5th and octave of the to set up the descending Bb major run. Play the rest of the guitar solo similar that of the bridge until the E chord. Replace these humble root notes with an E major scale run to the A. The forth verse is acapella with the exception of the final fill. It starts by playing around the Bb with the 1st, 5th and 6th similar to the verse although watch out for the push. Whilst the guitars tackle the solo the bass finds itself playing a pattern similar to the bridge but with the first four bars substituted.
To end this section play the crotchet triplets under the E chord before descending, with quavers, down the D major scale. I would start with a single note to focus on the rhythm and then introduce the chromatic run.

Missing the first beat of a triplet can be tricky for beginner players so practice full crotchet triplets before removing the first beat. He plays root notes through the E, A and F chords before playing the iconic crotchet triplet break. The bridge starts with walking around the 1st, 5th and 6th of the G and C before playing a descending Bb major scale from the D string. In the third verse there is a quick chromatic fill into the Bb of the solo, treat this as an anacrusis (pick-up) for that section in practice. The short acciaccatura sliding into the third of each chord whilst not essential adds a lot of musicality and style to the line. This pattern is broken with a triplet fill in bar 15, which is quick and crosses onto the G string to end. The verse’s are built a round the transposing a major pentatonic walking pattern to each major chord.

It is reasonably fast 125BPM so watch out for any fretboard jumps as there is the little time to change positions.īefore we dive into the performance notes you download a copy of the full score from Sheet Music Plus here. The rhythmic feel throughout is swung eight notes throughout with the occasional triplet fills and pushed chord changes. The bass line, like the the rest of the composition, is built round a 50’s rock ‘n’ roll sound although there is some influence from soul and jazz in there for good measure. This weeks transcription is the bass line for Queen’s ‘Crazy Little Thing Called Love’ taken the album, ‘The Game’ (1980).
