Band: The Killers
Song: Losing Touch
Bassist: Mark Stoermer
Another fun Killers song to play. Lots of nasty variations to remember in this one but
easy to improvise if you forget.
As always, I'm pretty sure this is 100% correct but if you find any errors please leave
comment.
Enjoy and please don't forget to rate!
