Flight Of The Conchords

Text File

Cute little song, I learned this by ear because I love it excessively! 
Have fun :)

*Notes > The strumming patterns takes a while to get used to but once you figure 
it out, it's very fun, and you can easily adopt it into other songs. Just keep 
practicing and you'll pick it up in no time!
