'Snowbirds And Townies' by Further Seems Forever - Guitar Tutorial

            Song: Snowbirds and Townies

Tabbed by: Mark ([email protected])

I heard some good reviews of my first FSF tab, On Legendary,
so I decided I’d try out another one of their songs.  Just as a warning,
a lot of the timings are really strange, so you should listen 
closely to the song for them.
