Koala Sprint

From the Head injuries album.

Tabbed by Matt Sheumack


(Tabbed for 2 Guitars)

And out from the echoes of the night
Concrete caverns catch the sky and hold the stars to ransom
 	Athousand (x02220@1)dreams, it's getting late
	Thousand runners standing still
I can smell the sand and sea again
I've had enough away
 	City times down down, I've got to go
Lord don't let me wait, Stay low
			Am (x02210@1)			Bb (x1333x@1)Dm'Cause (xx0231@1)I'm going up north again
