Good Charlotte - The Anthem
I used to be a big GC-fan, not anymore though! Somehow this song struck my
mind and I had to listen to it, then I just felt like tabbing it..
Enjoy!

*Verse*
C# G#
It's a new day, but it all feels old
C# F#
It's a good life, that's what I'm told
C# G# F#
But everything, it all just feels the same
C# G#
At my high school, it felt more to me
C# F#
Like a jail cell, a penitentiary
C# G# F#
My time spent there, it only made me see
*Pre-chorus 1*
Bbm F#
That I don't ever wanna be like you
C#
I don't wanna do the things you do
Bbm F#
I'm never gonna hear the words you say
G#
and I don't ever wanna, I don't ever wanna be
*Chorus*
C# G# F# G# C# G#
You___ ...don't wanna be just like you
F# A
Oh what I'm sayin' is
C# G# F# G#
This is the anthem, throw all your hands up,
C# G# F# C# <-(When you land on this chord you
you___ ... don't wanna be you| play the second intro)
*Second intro*
*Verse2*
C# G#
Go to college, a university
C# F#
Get a real job, That's what they said to me
C# G# F#
But I could never live the way they want
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/g/good_charlotte/the_anthem_crd_ver_4.html ]
C# G#
I'm gonna get by, and just do my time,
C# F#
Out of step while, they all get in line
C# G# F#
I'm just a minor threat so pay no mind
*Pre-chorus 2*
Bbm F#
Do you really wanna be like them,
C#
do you really wanna be another trend?
Bbm F#
Do you wanna be part of that crowd?
G#
'cause I don't ever wanna, I don't ever wanna be
*Chorus* (Only one small difference)
You...don't wanna be just like you
Oh what I'm sayin' is this is the anthem throw all your hands up,
Bbm <--(Instead of landing on C#,
you, don't wanna be you you land on Bbm, for the bridge)
*Bridge*
(Bbm) G#
Shake it once, that's fine
F# G#
Shake it twice, that's okay
Bbm G# C# G#
Shake it three times, you're playing with yourself, again.
*Solo*
