Bouncing Souls
Letter From Iraq
Standard tuning
This song has some very odd strumming patterns, im not sure if i did them
right I'm going to post this song as chords eventually because it might be
easier to read that way
Also Please Note that the E's should be played with a muted top string
It doesn't matter if you don't I guess, but it sounds better muted.
