Conversation 16
The National
Text File
Here's "Conversation 16" from High Violet. This is a really great one from the
album, one of my favorites. Good Luck finding a vocalist that can bellow like Matt
Berninger! You might wanna use a capo on this one if your vocal range is higher
than Berninger's. Have fun!- K.D.
