First of all, sorry for my English.
I'm learning bass and I'll play a cover with a friend. The song is Redbone by Childish Gambino. The problem is that my friend changed the original note and it's down a few tones (I think the original is in Ebm and my friend's version it's in C#m) . I'm having a hard time trying to transpose all the tabs from the original song. I'm learning with tabs so if anyone can help me, idk if this is the right forum but I'll appreciate your help!

One of the great things about bass is that for the most part if you learn the song in one key, the fingering (pattern) doesn't change much when you transpose. Learn it the way it is, then scoot over two strings and you have it. Well that's assuming you have a B string on your bass. If you don't have a B string, no worries the pattern is the same if you scoot up two frets.

It's a 4 string bass, and everything seems correct but I have one note that's off and I can't figure it out
