                       * French Films - Escape In The Afternoon *
                       ******************************************

Brilliant song by young fins French Films from their debut album "Imaginary Future".
Very easy to play and nice to sing along on a cosy sunny afternoon while the sun 
is sinking ;) Perfect record for spring and summertime!
Have fun!

       Sometimes I miss
  E (022100@1)            A (x02220@1)       E (022100@1)  (listen carefully to get the pattern)
My old friends in my home town
