A pretty good song from the funniest man on earth. If someone has
a MP3 file for 'At a medium pace' please tell me. The B? chord in
this song is pretty strange. You should listen to the song to hear
how he plays it, it's not really a part of the song, he just throws
it in sometimes when he's stopping. Anyway, listen to the song,
you'll hear what I mean. Thanks to Bruce, Sandy and Ari who posted
this song at OLGA. That's where I got the lyrics but they had the
chords a bit wrong. (A instead of Asus2, D instead of Dsus2).
Anyway, thanks to them, I don't have their email addresses because
they weren't in the file.
