"Holding Nothing Back" Bass Tab in E Standard. All those "hidden" notes are revealed & demonstrated. There's a live tab streaming w/ the song so you can play along.

Title: Holding Nothing Back
Authors: Tim Hughes and Martin Smith
Copyright: 2007 Thankyou Music and Curious? Music UK
Administration: EMI Christian Music Publishing
Themes: Christian Life, Dedication, Devotion, Freedom, God's Attributes, and Love

I am very, very tired. It's 4:30 am. I started with the song at few hours ago. I took my time and tabbed out all the notes I could distinguish. I would tab out a part, like the verse or the chorus, and then I would start over the song. This was to stay fresh with the context of the music. I think I did a good job making out the notes, and I also think I did all right playing the song. The video is my first take playing the song. I might have done a dozen or a few dozen more takes, but I was tired back then. After I did my take I worked on all the titles with the tabulation.

I hope this is helpful. Please keep me in your prayers!

I am watching Fox News Channel. I am waiting for this video to load onto YouTube.Sleep will be GREAT! I'm so exhausted.I am supposed to be learning lots of songs for a few different band/praise and worship church bands. This is a form of overload. I am overloading myself.

Pray for me. :)

******* SCRIPTURE FOR SONG
I did a simple google search for the scripture this song covers, and I found nothing. If you know any verses that this song reflects, please share it with me, so I can post it for everyone to benefit from it! :)
******* SCRIPTURE FOR SONG

Lyrics (stolen from @rowellos):

Verse
I am chosen, I am free
I am living for eternity
Free now forever

You picked me up,
Turned me around
You set my feet on solid ground
Yours now forever

Pre-Chorus
And nothing's gonna hold me back
Nothing's gonna hold me back
Nothing's gonna hold me back

Chorus
My chains fell off
My heart was free
I'm alive to live for You
I'm alive to live for You

Amazing Love, how can it be?
You gave everything for me
You gave everything for me
Everything

Verse
You washed my sin and shame away
The slate is clean: a brand new day,
Free now forever
Now boldly I approach Your throne
To claim this crown through Christ my own
Yours now forever

Bridge
I'm free to live
Free to give
Free to be
I'm free to love You


BPM: 140

  • @RoninSC07 — Thanks, man. I have wonderful headphones that help me a lot (Sennheiser HD 650's)! I love Paul McCartney!! Jared Followill, from Kings Of Leon? Great choices! I am not creative with writing original bass-lines, but I am better at assimilating what other players play. :) Please tape you playing it at church! I want to watch! I just played "Holding Nothing Back" last Sunday at my church too! 

  • @chatterz9000 — Bro, I still got through the song, bro. I play the way I do, and it works. I am self-taught. What is your level of training?

  • @RoninSC07 — McCartney's Rickie is much different from mine. It's a 1974. Mine is 1977. His has a zero fret. I hate the neck on his. It is natural wood too, but the wood is different. The pups are different too I think. I'd love to mod my Rickie. I love my 2008 Fender American Standard Jazz bass. P-basses sound too punk for me. I love the muddy sound of the Jazz. You should post a vid. of you on bass! Stay tuned for my next tab video. It's for a Lincoln Brewster song that has some rockin' bass!

  • @RoninSC07 — First of all, "Ronin Warriors?!" Is that it or is it because you're Ron. I hope it's both. I don't know what kind of strings were on the bass in that video, but now I think I use standard DR High Beams. At the time, that bass had been set up by Michael Koontz, Jack White and Kid Rock's guitar tech. Now my friend, Shawn Pawlowski does it for me. I don't use an amp. I use something else between the bass and 2009 MacBook Pro. What's your favorite new 2011 song? What's your set up?

  • @JRak0t — Thank you very much, man! It is totally my pleasure to be of any assistance! You are an AMAZING pianist! Let me know how it goes with you playing bass! What Worship band are you listening to and really enjoying right now?

  • @BeeWiseman — Dude, I'm essentially an insomniac. I get the tired thing! At least if you start early enough, a sleepy night of haphazard practice can result in a morning of huge progress. I've slept on hard songs to awake somehow with the new-found ability to play them! Best wishes for you! In fact, my latest bass tab-cover of "Father, Spirit, Jesus" by Casting Crowns happened like that for me!

  • be blessed)))good job!!!!!!

  • Thanks for this man I actually learned to play this song better because of this video. Can u explain the bridge where you bounce from the A to D on the 6 and 7 frets. I saw the tab and tried to watch your fingers but really didn't see or hear anything.

  • good!

  • Awesomeeeeee! :D I'm soon gonna play bass too. And I wanna learn this song. And yes, my English is terrible.

  • Thanks for tabbing that all out. It was a lot easier than me having to figure it out. I audition to play at my church with this song.

  • Awsome vid. I jus got my first bass yesterday afternoon and i already knew a son last night bc of this. I would appreciate it if u made a vid of your grace is enough by chris tomlin.

  • Bro this is awesome and just what I need! My youth is just starting a praise and worship band and I'm the bassist, but I'm pretty new and I wated to spice things up. You definitely are an inspiritation! Thanks bro! God Bless.

  • Nicely done. Appreciate it!

  • Thanks for the tab and for playing along. Really nice way you did that.  Soooo helpful. Even a novice bass player such as myself is able to get it!! Keep going and I hope you get hooked up with a great Christian band!
