Artist: Straylight Run
Title: "The Words We Say"
Album: The Needles The Space
Standard Tuning (Capo 2)

The intro is supposed to be played on a glockenspiel but if you're like me and don't own 
you can play this intro which sounds great on an acoustic guitar. Also, I saw 
Run perform this song and John played it on Capo 2, so that's how I tabbed it. I hope you enjoy it!
