GONE - Jack Johnson
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuning: Standard
This song sounds so much better if you pick it like the way I show it in the
intro. Just pick the bass string once, then the 2nd and 3rd string under the
bass tone and then again the bass.

[Chorus]
EGone, Bgoing

EYou try to G#be appealing, but you C#mlose your Aappeal
EAnd G#what about those C#mshoes you're in Atoday?
They'll do no F#mgood, on the bridges you've Bburnt along the way
[Chorus]
EYou’re Bwilling to C#msell anyAthing
Gone with your Eherd
Leave your Bfootprints
And we'll C#mshame them with our Awords
Gone, Epeople.B.. all C#mcareless and Aconsumed... Egone
[Chorus]
EGone, Bgoing
C#mGone, everyAthing
Gone, give a Edamn
Gone Bbe the birds, if C#mthey don't wanna Asing
Gone, Epeople.B.. all C#mawkward with their Athings
