**
Last time I did a Ramones song, people had very strong opinions about not using my 5 string bass (even though I only played on 4 strings), and that I didn't down pick through the whole song. I fixed both things this time! :)

The live videos aren't very helpful for the song because Jean Beauvoir, the studio bassist, never played it live from what I could find. the first video is a whole step higher and although it has dee dee, most live performances had CJ. CJ, Dee Dee, and Jean all played it a bit differently. Dee Dee followed the guitar and often put a quarter note at the start of the chord changes

1989 - dee dee playing | fretted and sounds whole step higher. same tuning as studio, but song was moved up in pitch (changed key)
0:04 - p bass, pick, fretted mid neck
0:09 - Higher on neck than studio pitch
2:21 - chorus slides up and then back down (not moving across strings)
2:27 - slides down in the "b" part of the chorus
2:53 - outro fretting hand visible - stays on A String
2:22 & 2:55 & 3:09 - hits a quarter note at the start of the chord, then 8ths

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fyGUABq2HoA
CJ? looks different but could be him - live on letterman 1991
Playing low on neck (d string) & up a whole step from the studio version again
pick, jazz? bass (or soap bar. front pickup looks thicker)
0:37 - changes the last note of the verse riff to an open D (whole step below the first note of the riff)
1:56 - mid neck and does a fill

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2e1Ps9g2Q38
2:17 - p bass, pick, CJ, same key as the other live performances, and same position as dee dee
2:36 - no downbeat quarter notes (straight 8ths)

Variations
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fyGUABq2HoA
0:37 - changes the last note of the verse riff to an open D (whole step below the first note of the riff)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtuayg-_tYI
2:55 & 3:09 - hits a quarter note at the start of the chord, then 8ths
Dee Dee followed the guitar and often put a quarter note at the start of the chord changes

Thanks for watching! Enjoy :)
