/ Reel Big Fish / Cheer Up! (2002) / Good Thing guitar tab

Artist: Reel Big Fish
Song: Good Thing
Album: Cheer Up (track 1)
Tabber: Jack Kelly

I'v updated it now as im about 50 times better at guitar now
and iv redone the fill, the solo, and the fall so now theyre
pretty much 100%. I did this because some people were asking
for it but it was i pit off.
I love this song so i thought i would tab it and send it in.
