 Lyrics:
 
 And even though the moment passed me by, 
 I still can't turn away.
 I saw the dreams you never thought you'd lose,
 Tossed along the way.
 Letters that you never meant to send,
 Lost and thrown away.
 
 Now we're grown up orphans, that never knew their names.
 We don't belong to no one, that's a shame.
 You could hide beside me, maybe for a while.
 And I won't tell no one your name, no I won't tell 'em your name.
 
 Scars are souveneers you never lose,
 The past is never far.
 Did you lose yourself somewhere out there?
 Did you get to be a star?
 Don't it make you sad to know that life,
 Is more than who we are.
 
 You grew up way too fast, and now there's nothing to believe.
 And re-runs all become our history.
 A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio.
 And I won't tell no one your name, no I won't tell 'em your name.
 
 I think about you all the time
 but I don't need the same.
 If it's lonely where you are come back down,
 and I won't tell no one your name.

 Here is Name by the Goo Goo Dolls, if you don't want to re-tune your
 guitar. If you really must play it this way, do, otherwise retune.

 (2nd guitar plays 2-4-6-7-9-2-4-6-7-9-7-6-7-6-4-2 on the G 
 string during the chords)
 
 And even though the moment passed me by, 
 I still can't turn away.
 I saw the dreams you never thought you'd lose,
 Tossed along the way.
 Letters that you never meant to send,
 Lost and thrown away.

 (Solo)
 (Have one guitar or bass play the chords (or roots), another guitar 
 pedals a high e (try 5th fret on the B string), while the other plays the 
 solo (this is my feeble attempt at it, but then, no one else has posted 
 anything))

 Goo Goo Dolls - Name
 Haven't had time to work on the 2nd guitar part but this is a
 much better rendition of the main rythm parts.
 
 Enjoy!
