Fantastic Bowling For Soup song.  Figured I'd share the chords.  
They are normally played as power chords.  The Eb chords can be played as a 
standard B barre chord.
If the E and Eb are played in power chord form it looks like this:


      E       Eb(B)
e|--------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------|
G|----9-------8-------------------------|
D|----9-------9-------------------------|
A|----7-------6-------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------|



E                     Eb
He told everybody goodbye 

                     C#m
He had a look in his eye 

     A                     B
Like this could be the last time 

E                      Eb
I knew you were feelin down 

                       C#m
I wish that I had been around more 

      A
Could I have changed things? 

        B
Maybe I could have changed things 





             A                        B
And it's the rainy days that mostly remind me 




E
Goodbye friend 

  B
I hope you found 

    C#m                      B
The answers you were lookin' for 

E
Goodbye friend 

        B              C#m         B
I don't think you ever knew 

               A
That there was someone here 

              B
That there is someone here 


                E
Who misses you 




E                   Eb
You were my biggest fan 

                     C#m
Together forever and then

   A             B
So many things I should've known 

E                                  Eb
You were always there to help me along 

                             C#m
And always there to sing my song 

       A
I wish I had told you 

            B
Man, I sure hope I told you 




             A                       B
And it's the rainy days that still remind me 

             A                            B
Ya, it's the crazy, crazy days I need you here 




E
Goodbye friend 

  B
I hope you found 

    C#m                      B
The answers you were lookin' for 

E
Goodbye friend 

        B              C#m        B
I don't think you ever knew 

               A
That there was someone here 

              B
That there is someone here 




C#m
Selfishly 

    A
I'm mad at you 

    E                   B
For making me feel like this 

               C#m
I wish I could talk to you 

     A
Like I used to 

    E                         B
And tell you that sometimes I hate you for doing 

A
This to the people 

     B
That love you so 

C#m
They look at me 

     B               A
Like I'm supposed to know 

             A
And that I'm tired 



E                           Eb
So thank you for saying goodbye 

                            C#m
And letting me know we're alright 

                    A
I hope that I deserved that 



E
Goodbye friend 

  B
I hope you found 

    C#m                   B
Whatever you were lookin' for 

E
Goodbye friend 

        B              C#m       B
I don't think you ever knew 





E
Goodbye friend 

  B
I hope you found 

    C#m                      B
The answers you were lookin' for 

E
Goodbye friend 

        B              C#m         B
I don't think you ever knew 

               A
That there was someone here 

              B
That there is someone here 


                
Who misses you 




E                 B                C#m                  A
                             Oh, I miss you                 God, I
