  Lyrics/Song Structure:
  ======================
  ---> Play Intro (x2)
  ---> Play Verse (x2)
  ---> Play Verse over:
     I don't Jones for nothing 'cause that's a waste
     Waste of space in my frontal love and
     I just sit, deal with it, don't have a fit
     Do you know what I'm saying?
     I just get as down as I can
     Don't look to relief from a troubled young man
     Just take a piece, sometimes it sucks
  ---> Play Riff 1
  ---> Play Verse over:
     Oh I'm not too sure If I can do this on my own guys
     Like I'm thinking maybe we should form a support group
     Or perhaps a church sponsored youth group
  ---> Play Riff 2
  ---> Play Riff 2 over:
     Oh, and then then I say I looked the other way
     I changed my point of view
     And here's what I do
  ---> Play Riff 3 (x2)
  ---> Play Verse over:
     This too shall pass
     This too shall pass
     This too shall pass
     This...
     All the good times, all the bad times
     Face it bro, they all will pass
     Your problems with seem inconsequential and trivial
     When you realize one thing
     We're just a speck of dirt on this golf ball called Earth
     So get stupid and sing
  ---> Play Riff 2
  ---> Play Riff 2 over:
     Oh, and then then I say I looked the other way
     I changed my point of view
     And here's what I do
  ---> Play Riff 3 (x2)
  ---> Play Riff 4 (x2)
  ---> No guitar over:
     This song has passed
  ---> Play sustained E5 (x799xx)
