Song: Failure to Excommunicate Artist: Relient K Album: Anatomy of the Tongue in Cheek Transcribed By: AlanTheWise Standard Tuning! Yay! This goes kinda fast, so you'll need to listen to the song to get the rhythm and all. It sounds best played with a pick, like most punk rock does. This is probably the hardest Relient K song so if you're a beginner bassist don't feel too bad if you don't get it right away. Other than that, enjoy the tab and have a pleasant day :-) Did that sound snotty? I really tried hard not to be this time.

But feel free to ask anyway! I'll still try my best.
