The Bees
Belly
Perfomance Notes - the main guitar part (tanya) is pretty simple
actually. the first two strings are ringing mostly all the time.
the chords to this song are just E, A, B, but because of the way
they are constructed they make all these fancy names...

I steal a piece of your diary

You come at me with mouth open wide
