Better Than Ezra - 'Good' From the Album 'Deluxe' Tuning: Standard tabbed by jjhand, with help from andrewjp123's tab I saw youtube footage of the band playing this song, so I corrected the previous tabs to reflect how its actually played. Singer/Guitarist Kevin Griffin has always had great guitar tone & melodic songs so BTE was always one of my favorites. Please rate/comment.
