---> 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
