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!
I've been obsessed with this song lately and decided that I would try to tab it out. I got the correct lyrics from their official website and tried my best to match them up with the chords. I'm not sure what the strum pattern is yet but I'll update it as soon as I figure it out...
Rate/comment and leave feedback/suggestions on how I can make this tab better!
