Gabilan

by Duncan Brown Standard Tuning Capo @ 7th Fret Note: I wasn't quite sure how to space this out since it has a different time signature. This is as much sense as I could make of it.

He has no compassion for those who crumble to dust, nor can he help them find what they learned at birth. A hawk-- I would be up there with you but alas I have no beauty, I can only wish.
