Last Goodbye
Last Goodbye
The last tab posted for this song was pretty vague, so I thought I would
clean it up a little bit, and make it easuer to figure out. Also, some of
the chord progressions were wrong, in my opinion.
The song opens up with a really cool slide part. The previous version had
this part right.
Tuning: Normal
Intro:
1|-------------------
2|-2-/-5-/12-\7------
3|-2-/-5-/12-\7------
4|-2-/-5-/12-\7------
5|-------------------
6|-------------------
Right here the guitar comes in, and starts playing two chords over and over
again. It sounds closest to me if you use first position chords for the
intro, and the barre chords the rest of the song. The two chords at the
beginning are G and the D. Everyone knows them, but I will tab them just
to be thorough.
G D
1|--3----3-
2|--3----2-

This bassline is repeated twice and then the guitar joins in, playing A, C,
G, and D chords to match:
A C G D
1|-5^�5^�5^�-3^�3^�3^�3^�-3^�3^�3^�-5^�5^�5^�5--
2|-5^�5^�5--5^�5^�5^�5^�-3^�3-3^�-7^�7^�7^�7--
3|-6^�6^�6--5^�5^�5^�5^�-4^�4^�4^�-7^�7^�7^�7--

5|-7^�7^�7--3^�3^�3^�3^�-5^�5^�5^�-5^�5^�5^�5--

Listen to the song to pick up the strumming for this part. There is some
string muting between the strums during the A and G chords. (This is also
the progression during the chorus.)
Right before the change to the next chord progression, instead of switching
to the C chord from the A, just keep playing the A chord for two beats.
Then instead of switching from the G to the D chord, just play the G for
two beats.
Alright, here's where I get a little hazy on this song, but I might as well
post what I think the song does.
The rest of the song is a mix and match of the chord progressions above.
Just listen to it while you play.
Here are as much of the lyrics as I can understand. Jeff's words kind of
blend together when he hits the high notes, so these are probably wrong,
but oh well.
That as much as I can understand. I don't know if the actual lyrics are
printed in the CD cover, as I do not own the CD, but they may be.
