Guitar I: Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)

Here are the chords and some of the lyrics to the Green Day song. This song works with a fast syncopated strumming pattern. This is a good song with which to practice chord transitions. 

"Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)"

                        G                               C                       D        
Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
                 G                                        C                          D
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
                   Em               D               C                          G
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why
                     Em         D                    C                        G
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time

                                                                                                                            Em                    G                    Em                G                                       It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
                              Em                       D               G
I hope you had the time of your life.

                G                                         C                         D  
So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind
                    G                           C                              D
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time
                        Em           D                  C                  G
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial
                      Em               D                 C                  G
For what it's worth it was worth all the while

                Em                   G                Em                G
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
                        Em                      D                G
                     I hope you had the time of your life.

                      Em                   G               Em                G
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
                        Em                      D                G
                     I hope you had the time of your life.

                     Em                    G               Em                  G
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
                        Em                      D                G
                     I hope you had the time of your life.
