* Man, I love this song! It's so great! But what did you expect from the
Goo *
* Goo Dolls? Although the Dolls use weird guitar tunings, I've made this
tab for *
* standard tuning: E A D G B E. I just followed the bass-line, and this
way the *
* chords sounds great and pretty close to the original. *

[VERSE]
B G#m
The cowboy kills the rockstar
B G#m
And Friday night's gone too far
B G#m
The dim light hides the years
E
On all the faded girls
B G#m
Forgotten but not gone
B G#m
You're drinking off your mind
B G#m
You talk about the world
B G#m F#
Like it's some place that you've been
[PRE-CHORUS]
G#m
You see you'd love to run home
But you konow you ain't got one
E
Cuz you're living in a world
(rythm fig. 2)
That you're best forgotten 'round here

You choke down all your anger
B G#m
Forget your only son
B G#m
You pray to statues

When you're sober or for fun

Your anger don't impress me
B G#m
The world slapped in your face

It always rains like hell
B G#m F#
On the losers day parade
[PRE-CHORUS]

You see you'd love to run home
But you know you ain't got one

Cuz you're living in a world
That you're best forgotten

When you're thinking of a joke
And nobody's gonna listen
E
To the one small point
I know they've been missing
