UPSIDE DOWN - GoldFord
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: roweboat
Tuning: Standard
This is a pretty neat song by Chicago-based band GoldFord. It's pretty easy, as the intro, verse, chorus, and
bridge are all virtually the same thing, so just have fun improvising and making it your own! One thing I
like to do to make it a little more interesting to play is to incorporate the intro that John Mayer does in
the song Man On The Side from the song Lenny as such: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7EirzYiiIQ

^This is what they actually play in the song, but if you're playing by yourself, it fills out the sound
more if you play these chords:
