Good Time For A Bad Attitude
Lyrics By Art Alexakis
Music By Everclear

Tuning half a step down
NOTE: Tuning is half a step down (Low to High EbAbDbGbBbeb)
	All Chords are written with respect to that tuning 
		(ie A becomes G#)

(Verse Riff)
    B           F#          Ebm          Db

Gb|--------0-----------0-----------0-----------0----|
Db|-----5-----------------------9-----------7-------|
Ab|--3--------------5-----5--7--------6--5--------4-|
Eb|-----------5--3----------------------------------|

(No Guitar)             (Verse riff)
It can come from out of nowhere
Hit you when you're safe and warm
Take it easy my star
Your time is gonna come
Your time is gonna come

You got those crazy blue eyes
Yeah, you got those crazy blues
All those pretty smiles
I can see them laughing at you
Your time is gonna come
Your time is gonna come

(FOR CHORUS: Guitar (probably with a chorus pedal) plays each chord 
once, while another strums the chords continuously behind with palm 
muting)

(NOTE: Remember that it's tuned 1/2 step down. So play a B chord 
like you would play a C in standard tuning.)

(verse riff through 2nd verse)
Yeah you say you got this bad thing
You say you got it bad
You have broken every heart
Of every friend you've ever had
Some day the time will come
When all your friends will go away

I wonder why I stick around
Sometimes I wish you would leave
You say you'll love me forever
Then you spit on me
Your time is gonna come

(Distorted Guitar plays each chord once, while another play continuously
behind it but palm muted. Chords are the same as the first chorus so play B
like you would play a C in standard tuning or look at the first chorus for
exact shape)

Will not let you twist me anymore
Will not let you turn me inside out
