Bass
G|---------------------------------------------<7>--
D|---------6----------------------6------------<7>--
A|-----5h7-----------5--------5h7-----------5-------
E|--0----------5h6h7----3-------------5h6h7---------

Then I usually add in a pull off from G>E at the end:
G|-----------------------------------------------
D|------6----------------------6-----------------
A|--5h7-----------5--------5h7-----------5-------
E|----------5h6h7----3-------------5h6h7----3p0--

Listen to the song for exact timing, and when Pony puts in the harmonic part.

Pony sometimes does a lot of little tricks to tweak his sound and make him a
complete bassfunkpimp- but this is the general idea of it.

This is the riff the guitar plays after the last lyric. Use the open strings
creatively throughout to fill out the sliding octaves. The bass continues
with stuff based in E.
