Product Description
Save Your Tears is a song by Canadian singer, Abel Tesfaye, better known with his stage name, The Weeknd. The song was released in his fourth album, After Hours (2020), and released as the final single on August 19, 2020. The Weeknd wrote this song with Ahmad Balshe, Jason Quenneville, Oscar Holter, and Max Martin.
This transcription is based on the 11th track of the album and arranged to be played on a 4-string bass with standard tuning. The track credited three songwriters, Tesfaye, Holter, and Martin as the bass performer/programmer in the album. During my research, I found few live performances of this song on YouTube, performed by Ledaris Jones on his 4-string Fender Jazz bass with a pick.
This song is in the key of C major and about 335" long. The tempo is at 118 bpm. The song features the reminiscent of 80s pop music, and the basslines supported the style keeping the root note on every quaver/8th note alongside the repetitive disco drum pattern. This score is perfect for a beginner who would like to learn to play with a pick.
This transcription includes 3 parts: 1)both notation and TAB (3 pages) 2)notation-only (2 pages); 3)TAB-only (2 pages). I made these options available for any bassist with different preferences. I know we are unique, as I am a bassist as well
