A Friendly Goodbye Tabs & Lyrics by Bowling for Soup
A Friendly Goodbye
guitar tabs lyrics
Tuning: Guitar 1&2: Standard
There's really only a difference in the guitars in the intro/hook, the rest of the song
play the same thing. This is my first time doing a tab so it might not look great but
definitely accurate.
* = palm mute
/ = pickscrape

There also seems to be some high note action going on, but it's sorta inaudible. Not
it won't be a huge loss, but I think it's something like this:

And that should do it! Let me know if I should keep doing these or just stick to playing.
