Title - The Goodbye Song
Artist - A New Found Glory
Album - Nothing Gold Can Stay

This was one of the first tunes of NFG's that I heard and its pretty much what is responsible for getting me
hooked on them so its only fitting that this be the first tab that i put up on the net.  I have to credit
Duder with most of the work though.  To my ears, this sounds just about perfect, let me know what you think...

Note: Just 2 things.  1 - Most of the notes in this song are strummed, not just hit so listen along and find
the pattern and 2. pay attention to the Both/Rhythm/Lead Guitar above each section as it changes a little.

Then repeat the whole thing again
The only thing I am missing (I think) is the little guitar trill at 1:27 in the song but that?s about it

Feel free to add to it and/or correct it.  Thanks.
