Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
Am It was Don Delilo whiskey FC And a blinking midnight clock C Speakers on the T.V. stand FG Just a turntable to watch Am Only smoke came out our mouths FC On all those hooded sweatshirt walks AmGF We were a stroke of luck AmGF We were a gold mine that gutted us
CAm And from the sidelines you see me run CF Until I'm out of breath CG Living the good life I left for death FG The sorrowful midwest GF But I did my best to keep my head
CAmGF 2x
Am It was grass stain jeans and incompletes FC And a girl from class to touch C But you think about yourself too much FG And you ruin who you love Am Well all these claims at consciousness FC My stray dog freedom AmGF Let's have a nice clean cut AmGF Like a bag we buy and divy up
CAm And from the sidelines I see you run CF Until you're out of breath CG And all those white lines that sped us up FG We hurried to our death GF Well I lagged behind so you got ahead.
