Song: Goodbye Friend
Artist: Bowling For Soup
Album: My Wena EP
Year: 2009
Fantastic Bowling For Soup song. Figured I'd share the chords.
They are normally played as power chords. The Eb chords can be played as a
standard B barre chord.
If the E and Eb are played in power chord form it looks like this:
E Eb(B)
e|--------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------|
G|----9-------8-------------------------|
D|----9-------9-------------------------|
A|----7-------6-------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------|
