In the days of my youth
I was telling what it means to be a man
Now I reached that age
I've tried to do all those things the best I can
No matter how I tried to find my way
To the same old jam

*Good times bad times
You know I've had my share
But my woman as hold would run out mad
But I still can't seem to care

Sometimes I've been in better love when the
Girl is sweet as could be
It only took a couple of days, till she was rid of me
She swore that she would be all mine
Love mw till the end
But when I whispered in her ear
I lost another friend Oh

*
*
I know what it means to be alone
I sure wish I was at home
I don't care what the neighbor's say
I know I'd love you each day and everyday
You could feel the best within my heart
Real love is sweet thing and we ain't never gonna part

This is the intro, taking you up to the chorus. ("Good Times, Bad
Times...") There are actually two guitars here, but I've tried to simplify
things as much as possible for one. Also, watch for minor changes in the
fingering, as there are changes not only between the hammers-on and slides of
the two guitar parts, but between each time the bit is repeated. My symbols
above the TAB, "[: :]x mean to repeat everything betweeen the brackets and
colons, and do it the number of times followed by "x", in this case five times.
-Dave

Here's the chorus, in which I'll TAB out the two guitar parts
separately, as there is quite a difference:

Guitar II:

D--B------9---9/14---14-14---14-14-14---------9-\9-9-9-9-9---\r ("r" stands
A-----9-9-9---7/12---12-12---14-14-14---7/9-9-9-\9-9-9-9-9---\r for "rest")
E-----7-7-----7/12---12-12---12-12-12---5/7-7----7-7-7-7-7---\r

Guitar I:

e--------------------------------------------------------------------------
B--T-----2-----------------------------------------------------------------
G--A-----------------------------------------------------------------------
D--B--------------------2-2---2----7^5^7-----7-7-7-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-7/9-9-9-9-
A-----------------------0-0---0---0------0---------------------------------

e------------------------
B--T---------------------
G--A-----------4\r-------
D--B--7/9-9-9-9----------
A--------------2\r-------
E-----5/7-7-7-7----------

At this point "Sixteen I fell in love..." both guitars play the same
part, which is:
[:F#5 E5F#5 E5F#5 F#5 E5 F#5 E5F#5:]x3
e------------------------------------------------------
B--T---------------------------------------------------
G--A----------11^9-11--4^2-4-x---------11^9-11-4^2-4^2-
D--B----------11-9-11--4-2-4-x---------11-9-11-4-2-4-2-
A-----4-4------------------------4---------------------
E-----2-2----------------------2-2---------------------

Watch for changes in which notes are struck and where rests are taken
each time you repeat.
Now the chorus comes again, but this time it's in B, use chord changes
between B (x2444x), Esus4 (00222x), and E (02210x). At "when my woman left
home..." go to a C# (x4666x) on "woman", to a B (799877) to an F#
(x9.11.11.11x). Hopefully, you get the picture. I could TAB it out, but it's
not that complex, and I'm feeling lazy.
