Son Volt – Bicycle Hotel Bonus track on the iTunes exclusive Deluxe Edition of “The Search” Words and Music by Jay Farrar Tabs by Tim Prizer ([email protected]) This is one of the best songs Jay Farrar has ever written, which in my book makes in one the best songs ever written – period. Somehow, it failed to make the final cut of “The Search”.
