Less Than The Air Tabs & Lyrics by David Dondero
Less Than The Air
guitar tabs lyrics
This is one of my favorite songs of the "The Transient" album. It's fairly simple, the
song it just finger picking chords. I didn't include a picking pattern, because its
easy to pick up, or you can just make your own. Also, just for a note, the voice that
Tangelo the second time is Conor Oberst's, lead singer of Bright Eyes.
Standard Tuning (EADGBe)
