STANDARD TUNING with open d ( E A d G B d )
CHORDS : Em - 022030 d - xx0230 C9 - x32030
G - 320030 G/B - x20030
*** We all know that The Goo Goo Dolls used the D# A# D# G# G# d# tuning (instead of the
E A D G B e ) for this song, which is hard & very time-consuming. You might also break
couple of strings in the process (In short, it's a headache to play!), so I came up with
tab to make our lives a whole lot easier. You're just gonna tune the 1st (e) string
to D. Simple. But of course, nothing beats the original... Then again, if you love this
so much but too lazy to dabble with the machine heads then i guess you should opt for this.
INTRO : 2x
