Song: Sprawl I (Flatland)
Artist: Arcade Fire
Album: The Suburbs

Régine's hurdy-gurdy starts the song, then the guitar joins in. 
They play the same notes except for the bridge at 1:40.

(The song repeats itself from now on until the bridge, but I have added the 
lyrics for these verses so you can play along easily.)
