Biography:
Toro y Moi is a solo project of Columbia, South Carolina native and resident, Chaz Bear (f.k.a. Chaz Bundick). In 2009, Bear earned a BFA in Graphic Design from The University of South Carolina.
Chaz Bear's methods are constantly evolving. While heavily influenced by his parent's vinyl and tape collection, his contemporary influences are Animal Collective, Sonic Youth, J Dilla, and Daft Punk.
Toro y Moi started in 2007 as a bedroom project that quickly grew into live performance.

What You Want - Toro Y Moi
A few notes: the intro should be played with the voicings described, at least the first two chords.
Also, I have the Bm intro named as a Bm but notated as a B5; I play it as the B5 but in the context of the
song it definitely is a Bm so I thought I should name it accordingly. Enjoy!
