Note that Lemmy's bass follows the root note for all the chords but he does a
little riff on the F# (sorry but you bass players will have to suss that out- it's
based on the A string between the 10th and tweflth frets but I haven't quite gotten
it sufficently to put down what I definitively think it is)
