This is 'Boys In The Band.' I got a first release CD on which it was called 'Breck Rd.
In The Band.' They are the same... anyway enjoy. It's my first and only tab, and it works
me but it's only an interperatation so don't get hissy.
The lyrics aren't my own either. They are also only here as a guide so if you want
lyrics look elsewhere.
