Good Lives


"Good Lives" by Eve 6 tabbed by Gage Brown Submitted by Andrew Crump NOTE: Since Eve 6 only uses one guitar, the guitar plays the following lead riffs for entire song. I have, however, provided the chords along with the lyrics for reference, you want to play it acoustic by yourself.

C#m = 4th fret A-string (actually 2nd fret low B-string; it's recorded on a 5-string, most people don't have one.) E = open E-string A = open A-string B = 2nd fret A-string]
