Three Balloons and a Trapdoor
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
By SANDBOX --- From: Bionic


Hey everyone! This is my first tab and I'm proud of it. I figured
this song out a few years ago after I saw Sandbox live when they
were on tour with the Barenaked Ladies... Saw that this wasn't up
on the OLGA so I figured this song would be a good place to start
my tab writing ;)
