It Gets Better - Fun.
lower case denotes playing just the note - almost all of which are in the lowest
octave playable in standard tuning, except the e's and f's in Riff 1 and just before the chorus.
most of the runs in the bass can be left out with no problem. They just make the
song more interesting. Everything harmonically necessary is still present without them.
