Artist: Grinspoon Song: Violent and Lazy Album: Easy Transcribed by: marriott@midcoast.com.au This is a fairly straight forward song but I've transcribed two versions of the verse riff as there seems to be a lot of improv going on. Either of these sound good. Be sure to mess around with the second bar of the verse riff as it changes slightly.
