Beatles - Im A Loser Bass guitar tab

I'm A Loser

The Beatles

Written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney; released on "Beatles For Sale"

album

This is one of my favourite songs. I like the lyrics, Paul's bassline in the

refrains, and the solo which is played by John on harmonica then by George

on guitar. You can slightly feel Bob Dylan's influence on this song.
