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!
Transcribed by Uri Klar ([email protected]) Probably the best songs on the album. Very moving… I transcribed in chord form so for of you who'd like to play it on the piano it shouldn't be hard to invert it.
A few notes: Eb7=Should be Played without the 5th note. Gm=Should be played with the 5th note lowered by a tone. Meaning played with a C note of a D (very crutial)…

Like first verse: The papers around me are piling and twisting regina the paper back mummy what then. I'm taking the knife to the books that I own and chopping and chopping and boiling soup stone. Things I have loved i'm allowed to keep. I'll never know if I go to sleep. Things I have loved i'm allowed to keep. I'll never know if I go to sleep.
