Biography:
Said the Whale is a Canadian band formed in 2007 as a collaboration between songwriters Ben Worcester and Tyler Bancroft. The pair’s debut EP, Taking Abalonia, featured sunny west coast indie pop, with breezy harmonies, shimmering guitars and lyrical tributes to their home city of Vancouver, “nodding at times to the sea shanties of Neutral Milk Hotel and at others to the boat-shoe-gazing of Vampire Weekend” said The National Post. In 2008, the album was re-released as Howe Sounds/Talking Abalonia

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
The strumming's not too hard to figure out, so I just wrote the chords to keep it simple
I play the little lead/solo bit between verses/choruses with my pinky while
playing the chords, but I'll edit this with the actual tab if anyone wants it
or can't figure it out
the second verse is just bass/keys/drums with no guitar, but if you want to
play the chords along anyway, they're the same as the first verse. thats
where i put the '*'
anyway, here it is..a really good song thats really fun to play
