Sorry Youre Not A Winner
Enter Shikari
Text File
I got tired of UG not having a correct bass tab for this song, they're all in the wrong
key. Good thing I'm not tone deaf eh? :P enjoy the tab! Put some hard work into this to
make it as perfect as possible. Rate/Comment and enjoy!
Here is the music video for the song, with the added techno intro before the bass and
drums kick it off. This is not the song I based the tab off of however, I based it off of
the song on the album listed below, so if you try and match up the video to the tab
times, just add 14 seconds to the times on the tab.

The guitar part to the breakdown is played in a 6/4 time signature while the drums play
a standard 4/4 time, which creates the cool effect.
Well that's Sorry You're Not A Winner by Enter Shikari for ya, in the right key and all
the right notes are in there. I spend some good time on this so if there is a mistake
lemme know and I'll fix it! :] I'm currently working on a Returning The Smile You Have
Had From The Start by Emery tab, so watch out for that too.
