[G] [Bm] [D] Okay, so [B] this next song, [C] [D] it was on the last album, it was [Db] on contra, but it took us a [Bb] very long time to [B] be able to play it live, or maybe just to [G] try to play it live.
So, [C] yesterday was the first time we played it [Ab] in Seattle, and this is another [B] [C] added benefit of [B] getting to come back and play it two shows at the time, and now we get to play it twice.
So, if you know it, please [Bb] sing along, if you know anything about it.
