Hi All,

here is part two with Literature is Fluff, Dressing Up the Old Dakota, and Might as Well Be Dumbo. I have encountered formatting issues when posting these chords, which has made it difficult to post more than one song at a time. hopefully, I can add other songs as replies. -Marc

         feeling so important

Cm   Eb7                   Abmaj7, Abm6

         a flunky by his side

there's not a lot to look at

now the barnraising is through

a hundred feet high

against a crystal clear sky

it might as well be Dumbo

with a pencil in his hand

but Dumbo can fly

that's him in the sky

it might as well be

just a tea boy and me

Hey Marc,

Thanks a lot for posting these tabs. I had tried in vain to make the forum go on tabbing spree some weeks ago here , starting with a tab of Literatture is fluff, by the way (which was quite close from yours).

If you're willing to part the tabbing job for other Llamas songs, just let me know.

And in case Seano is reading, may he feel free to amend tabs if need be - I would personnaly see no offense ;)

Cheers

Florian

I've added a few corrections to the tab of Might as Well Be Dumbo.

Fantastic song and thanks again Marc for tabbing it - it's priceless.
