Album - Last of the Ghetto Astronauts

You can choose to play this tune in standard tuning in the key of G minor
but I prefer to use a capo and open chords.
CAPO: III (3)
Frets all relative to CAPO.

(There is also a thin part for a second guitar here, but it is to small to worry
about tabbing, besides, can't play them both at once!)
(First bar of intro is used as a fill at end of first line in chorus)
end of the verse:
Repeat as necessary
"I'm wearing the same grin...."

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official MATTHEW GOOD BAND tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
