I learned it by ear, but you might ask the people at the TalkBass bass players forum. If music or tabs are available anywhere, someone there will know.
Thanks very much for the kind comments. My bass is actually a Musicman Cutlass II (like a Sabre but with a graphite neck) and has D'Addarrio Chrome flatwound strings which make a very big difference in the way it sounds. I did figure out the notes by ear, so I am not at all sure if Gary Tallent played the real line in the same positions -- I think he probably used fewer open strings. I really like this bass line, and I have listened to it a lot over the years.
Fantastic! - nice one.
