Back 2 Good Acoustic

• D

this is an amaaaazing song--u just gotta love it. i already knew how to play the
basic chords, but foolin around i got all the riffs figured out (plus the reed
parts) on my own. matchbox 20 two guitarists, so naturally this is for two
guitars. so along with the riffs i have the chords for the rhythm guitarist. you
can pick if u want to pick it, play chords, or mix em both. =) questions/comments

everyone here is wondering what it's like to be with somebody else
                       G               A 
and everyone here's to blame, everyone here
                      D               G
gets caught up in the pleasure of the pain
                       G               A  
yea well everyone here hides shades of shame
        D                       G     
yea but lookin inside we're the same, we're the same
G                        G                   A D
and we're all grown now, but we don't know how

G                      G
but it's over now,     and i don't know how
