Song: Acid Nation
Artist: Enter Shikari
Tuning: Standard

The bassline for this song is really unclear, so I had a go and came up with this. If 
have any suggestions please email me:
joel-92@hotmail.co.uk, because this is one of my first tabs so its probably wrong!

Verse:

The bass line is very faint but if you play it very softly it sounds like it

|------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------|      x4
|-99999999-88888888-9999999999999999-|


Chorus Part 1

"This is a celebration of spirit and the mind..."

|--------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------|
|----------77777777-4-4-4-4-99999999---|     x2
|-99999999-----------------------------|

Chorus Part 2, basicly the same as part1:

"This is an acid nation..."

|--------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------|
|----------77777777-44444444-99999999--|     x2
|-99999999-----------------------------|


Breakdown, the first bit is guitar, and then the bass kicks in:

"Feel the rays..."

------------------|
------------------|
------------------| Just before the bass comes in, you hear this
--9-9\------------|


------------------|
------------------|
------------------|    x4
-0-2-4-0-5-4-2-4--|

Repeat Chorus:

Chorus Part 1

"Next time you open your eyes..."

|--------------------------------------|

Breakdown again:

"Feel the rays..."

------------------|
------------------|
------------------| Just before the bass comes in, you hear this

-0-2-4-0-5-4-2-4--|


"And anyway who cares..."

------------------|
------------------|
------------------|
0-0-2-4-0-4-4-2-4-|

Wierd timing but sounds good when u get it right. If
you can't get it right play the breakdown again.


"The sun is out..."
