---&---
I listened to The Monkees [Deluxe Edition] a couple days ago, and I realized that the bass part in "Gonna Buy Me a Dog" mostly just alternates between two notes a fourth apart. Once I had those two notes (B and E), it wasn't too hard to figure out the rest. This is just the introduction (which is really only three notes), the first verse (which is entirely those two alternating notes), and the first chorus. The bass part repeats for the rest of the song though, so while I didn't play the whole part, I do have it all.
