ONE FOR THE BRAVES
by Good Riddance
On a D-tuned guitar the whole song is half a step higher than the actual song, but like
that it's easier to play. Fun song around a campfire with punk rock friends!

VERSE 1
C
Sometimes it seems so tough
C C C/B
Good friends are not enough
Am
And I'm powerless to help
F
When you take it all upon yourself
C
Feels like you just can't win
C C C/B
The whole wide world is closing in
Am
And it's so hard not to think the worse
F
When you're the centre of the universe
PRE-CHORUS
C - G
CHORUS
C C/B Am
I see you struggling with the wait of the world
F G C C/B C
Remember I'm always by your side
C C/B Am
Too many problems for one little girl
F G C
I'll be beside you when all your tears have dried
VERSE 2
C
I lay next to you at night
C C C/B
I know something's just not right
Am
But there's nothing I can say
F
When you feel ten thousand miles away
C
I don't have all the answers yet
C C C/B
But I get scared when you're upset
Am
And your heart feels like an empty home
F
When you feel so scared and all alone
PRE-CHORUS
C - G
CHORUS
C C/B Am
I see you struggling with the wait of the world

I'll be beside you when all your tears have dried
C C C/B
YEAH!
BRIDGE
Am F
Think everybody's talking about you
C G C C/B
And conspiring to bring you down
Am F
You're thinking that nobody loves you
C G
Ever wonder why I'm still around
CHORUS

I see you struggling with the wait of the world

Too many problems for one little girl

I'll be beside you when all your tears have dried
