the kooks – ooh la
[ chords by : wheezye ( saskstrum on youtube figured them out though ) ]
i’ve had this on my computer for quite a while . i remember laboriously going over this
tab for a while , but i can’t remember how much is original . i think all the chords are
original , but if i ripped you off i’m sorry .
fun fact , i heard the band pronounce their name as “the cooks . ” not like “kooky” , but
like “cook . ”
