nice tab from beginning to end man, i tried playin it
JohnnyTodJohnnyTod March 31, 2009 at 9:47 pm
I swear half of you people have never listened to this song. First of all the full title is "Good Riddance, Time of your Life". Time of your life is the short version of the title, not good riddance. Also, there is picking in the song. If you listen to the song, you'll hear something that isn't chords at the beggining, we call this picking. And the picking only goes through the first verse (it may continue, but you can't really hear it over the chords.) Someone needs to tab the violin part on guitar, and apparently its going to be me.
