FOALS "BALLOONS"
Tabbed by: Oscarlll
This is the most accurate tab around here.
Also check out my full guitars, bass, keys & synth guitarpro 6 tab.
Aditionally -if you don't have guitarpro- you could download an .rar file with the pdf tabs (of each
instrument, plus a multitrack tab) exported from the guitarpro file, y'know, if you want the music notation...
So, you can download it here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/k5wkjn5r5cwziqi/Foals%20Balloons%20Tabs.rar?dl=0
Tuning: All Foals songs are in Drop D.
Tempo: 154 BPM
