Neutral Milk Hotel Songs

The first things i learned to play on guitar were the simple, wonderfully strange songs of Neutral Milk Hotel. Below are lyrics and chords for the albums On Avery Island and In the Aeroplane over the Sea which i transcribed from close listening. Feel free to email me with any comments or corrections.

Update 2015-02-22: I found a more comprehensive list of NMH lyrics and chords at neutralmilkhotel.wikia.com.
