As recorded by Andrew Bird on the album The Mysterious Production of Eggs
Transcribed by Cameron Brydon (brydon5@hotmail.com)
Andrew Bird is an amazing singer/songwriter out of Chicago. He is a one-man orchestra,
playing multiple instruments during each song, looping samples of each to build songs.
He is amazing live, putting on his entire show with just one person, Kevin O'Donnel, who
plays drums and keyboards simultaneously.
Watch Andrew Bird live on www.fabchannel.com or on www.andrewbird.net, or go to
