Notes: This tab is to prove to huntersgte, that I can write quality tabs.
This song is in a weird tuning, as usual for the Goo Goo Dolls, but that’s what makes them so great!
This is an excellent song; I hope you enjoy playing it. I haven’t figured the solo, and some of the little fill
in(s) yet but when I do I’ll add them. Please don’t steal this tab, if you want to put it on your site, email me
for permission, thanks!!……..Enjoy!!
