Acoustic #3
Goo Goo Dolls
A beautiful song, both lyrically and musically,
and a nice simple acoustic piece. This actually
is not the exact tab of what John Rzeznik plays,
but his riff sounds weird alone because the orchestra
carries the chord progression in the song. This sounds
right, though, and is useful when you're not being
backed up by a host of violins and cellos. :)

(Riff 1)
They painted up your secrets
With the lies they told to you
And the least they ever gave you
Was the most you ever knew
(Riff 2)
And I wonder where these dreams go
When the world gets in your way
What's the point in all this screaming?
(Riff 3)
No one's listening anyway
Your voice is small and fading
As you hide in here unknown
And your mother loves your father
Cause she's got no where to go
And she wonders where these dreams go
Cause the world got in her way
What's the point in ever trying?
Nothing changing anyway
They press their lips against you
And you love the lies they say
And I tried so hard to reach you
But you're falling anyway
And you know I see right through you
Cause the world gets in your way
What's the point in all this screaming?
You're not listening anyway
