There's No 'i' In Team Good Riddance

tabbed by Darby Edelen
Great song on their newest album. Two guitars are used here and there, some of the lead guitar work I've tabbed may be a bit off, but the rhythm
guitar is dead on (once you pickup the... err... rhythm).

Verse:
I can still remember times
Of prosperity while staring clear eyed
With broad strokes of promise
We coloured [A#]highlights of our future[G#] and[G]
[D#] something we'll [G]never get
Until [C]we look back with [G#]sincere regret
As our a[D#]merican dreams are [G]subject to
col[A#]lapse beneath their [C#]density
Chorus:
C A# G# Co Do D#o
And we'll break before we bend Lead Guitar: And we'll break before we bend
With [D#]tomorrow as yet [A#]undetermined
C A# G# Co Do D#o
You can write your congressmen Lead Guitar: You can write your congressmen
And take your [D#]grievences to the [A#]highest level
C A# G# Co Do D#o
To achieve a common end Lead Guitar: To achieve a common end
D# A# G# (left hand muting off & on)
To serve the bourgeois, the laissez-faire

Verse:
Citizens [D#]duty-bound so we [G]play our part
If you [C]kill the brain then you'll [G#]stop the heart
And we [D#]foster the [G]illusion of a
[A#]Democratic arche[G#]type[G]
Can we [D#]forge hope from this [G]devastation
And [C]bring about [G#]participation
To [D]stem the a[G]pathetic tide
Now [A#]poised to wash us all away[C#]
Chorus:
(I've only included the lyrics, the chords are the same)
And we break before we bend
With tomorrow as yet undetermined
We achieve such selfish ends
'Till we concern ourselves with the plight of others
you can write your congressmen
And ***ing spit in the wind
For all the good it'll do you friend
[D#]
Bridge:
We havent got the luxury
Of neutral observation
'Cause when its said and done
B|-------------------8---|
We stand or fall as one
G|-------------------------8---|
And though the situations grave
B|-------------------------6h8-----| G|-----------------------------8---|
I think its worth the risk to save
This notion of the free
And the asylum of the [A#]brave
Outro (left hand muting off & on):
[D#] [G#] [C] [A#]
