Title: good riddance (time of your life)
**I wrote in the chords so it's easier for finger positions**
to make the song easier, don't try to pick each individual note,
kinda strum along as well as a little picking here and there

lyrics
another turning point a fork stuck in the road
time grabs you by the wrist directs you where to go
so make the best of this test and don't ask why
it's not a question but a lesson learned in time
it's something unpredictable but in the end it's right
i hope you had the time of your life
so take the photographs and stillframes in your mind
hang it on a shelf of good health and good time
tatoos and memories and dead skin on trial
for what it's worth it was worth all the while
i hope you had the time of your life
