Artist: Weezer
Song:  The Good Life (Acoustic)

Tabbed by Josh Lambka (Burttioman)

This is the acoustic version of The Good Life by Weezer. Chord names are
listed above the tabs. I tried to get the timing on the lyrics, which
came pretty close, but if the didn't the chords will give youa a general
idea of how to play it. Play of the intros 4 times at the beginning
of the song. They both sound good, but the second one is a little
easier to play. Have fun!
