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 reason I wrote the chords for this song (My first tab ever) is because I can't even
the lyrics on the internet.
If anyone else knows this song and the lyrics please email me at [email protected]
any corrections.
Trying to find these lyrics was like writing a history report on presidential assassinations.
I play this on acoustic to woo the political science ladies.
