Broadway - The Goo Goo Dolls

The Goo Goo Dolls are known for their very strange tunings.
One of the most common ones is to raise the B string to a C.
This tuning is very similar... only 1/2 step
down from that. Thus the tuning is:
E-A-D-G-B-e ----> Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Cb-eb

Here are the corresponding chords:

C- x32000
Am7- x02000
Fmaj- 134200
Fmaj2- 134000
F5- 134xxx
G- 3x0000
Am/D- xx0200
Am- x02200

It always rains like hell on the loser's day of parade

You see you'd love to run home, but you know you ain't got one

Fmaj2-----
Cuz you're living in a world that you best forgotten

To the one small point I know they've been missing round' you
