Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)

Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)

This one is actually totally the same as the previous CD single release of "Good Riddance" except the tuning and the way Billie played. If you are having troubles with reading (or playing) this one, I'll suggest you to go back to the CD single version and master that one, and then come back to this one.
