Goo Goo Dolls - All That You Are Tabs

Ver1.2 (corrected); Ver 1 had tuning error transcription


Here's my personal interpretation of how this great song is played. Real easy as long as
you get the tuning right. Everything indicated as "---" is meant to be played
open-string. Brings about a nice resonant 'twang unique to the GGD sound.

Tuned: D-A-D-A-D-e


Intro, Verse 1&2, Exit
