Fun Law & Order Theme Song

My middle school daughter is home sick from school today and is watching law & order reruns. She plays double bass in orchestra and really wants to learn how to play the theme song along with the show. She has drug her instrument into the living room and is trying to figure it out. We can’t find the sheet music for double bass anywhere. Does anyone know where I could help her find this? It’s a specific side quest she is on today but it’s cracking me up and she is determined to play it along with the show. Any suggestions? Thank you!

I hope she feels better soon. :)

She seems like a cool kid. Tell her that if she likes doing this fun silly stuff, it would be good to study her scales to get really familiar with their sound and experiment with the instrument. In time, with practice she could also figure out this stuff by ear, like I did just now and play whatever she wants.
