Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)
Green Day
nimrod. (1997)
Lyrics: Billie Joe Armstrong
Music: Green Day
Tuning: Normal
Notes: Obviously on an acoustic guitar, no bass or drums, but
string section in later parts. If you don't feel like emulating
Billie's picking and strumming patterns, just strum the chords
and it should work fine. This may not be the exact picking
pattern, but it's close enough.

h = hammer-on
p = pull-off
b = bend
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
5 = power chord

Lyrics

Another turning point
A fork stuck in the road (Verse 1)
Time grabs you by the wrist
Directs you where to go

So make the best of this test
And don't ask why (Pre-Chorus 1)
It's not a question
But a lesson learned in time

It's something unpredictable
But in the end it's right (Chorus)
I hope you had the time of your life

So take the photographs
And still-frames in your mind
Hanging on a shelf (Verse 2)
In good
health
and good times

Tattoos and memories
And dead skin on trial
for what it's worth (Pre-Chorus 2)
It was worth all the while

(Chorus)
(Bridge)
(Chorus x2)
