Iris
by the Goo Goo Dolls

(originally tabbed in 1998 by goo@soong.heinous.net)

I have played this song the way I think it sounds
Good for a long time. This is how I think it is played.
It is mainly the same as the original tab, but I put

You'll see what I mean.

The intro can be played on the guitar... it just sounds
Different unless you modify it with pedal.
