Okay, Nate here! I have had a ton of people asking me how I play Blink-182 covers. Because I don't play it the way Tom does. Well, to all those people that want to know, here's your letter and Going Away To College.
Song: Going Away To College
Artist: Blink-182
Album: Enema of the State
Note: I realize this intro is not how Tom plays it. The intro sounds exactly the same. I just used different chord variations.
