The Good Life is the side project of Tim Kasher from Cursive. I've had trouble finding
tabs for The Good Life, so I decided to try my hand at it. I've only been playing guita
 a year or so, so my ear may be off, feel free to correct me.

Chords (as far as I know, I wasn't sure of the notation for some so I just added the
-mod for "modified")
