*** We all know The Goo Goo Dolls used a weird alternate tuning of D# A# D# G# G#
d# for this song--something which is tedious to do & very time-consuming. You
might also break a couple of strings in the process. In short, it's a headache to
play! So I came up with this tab to make our lives a whole lot easier. Just drop
the 1st (e) string to D and you're good to go.
If you love the song so much but too lazy to dabble with the machine heads then I
guess you should opt for my version.
