T. Rex
Laser Love
an amazing song by the grandaddy of Glam Rock, Marc Bolan! I cant believe I'm the 1st to
it, and I'm not sure its correct, but its near enough to have fun with.
I will add the lyrics underneath if I can. the --- things are for spacing only and have
musical relevance eg. rests, timing etc.
