Time Of Your Life Good Riddance

song name : time of your life ( good riddance ) artist name : green day beginners read this : this is a simplified version of the song that only uses 4 chords , G , D , Em and C . this is recommended for beginner guitarist to practice the normal basic chords and learn the song before moving to more advanced chord progressions and styling . you can use the chords below to play with the original green day version . taking it to the next level : for alternative chords and a more accurate sounding rhythm , replace Em with Em7 , replace C with Cadd9 and add Dsus4 before or after any D chords that occur throughout the song . most people actually find using the alternative chords easier than the version below , however its good practice to master the basic chords first as most chord variations can be derived from the basic chords . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Intro : G C D x 2 ( G is played twice as long as the other chords ) Verse 1 : G C D another turning point , a fork stuck in the road G C D time grabs you by the wrist , directs you where to go Em D C G so make the best of this test , and don’t ask why Em D C G it’s not a question , but a lesson learned in time Chorus : Em G Em G it’s something unpredictable , but in the end it’s right .
