Chords for Goo Goo Dolls - Name - Sound FX 1995 (First Performance)

is with the band that just [Dm] rocks.
Yes, they do rock.
I am here with the Goo Goo [E] Dolls.
Hi.
We got Johnny and [G#m] Robbie, Goo.
And Gummy.
And Gummy.
And Peach.
And Peach.
And Peach.
Okay.
And the new album is called The Boy Named Goo.
And [Dm] I was just telling you guys before last night,
I told [N] everybody it rocked.
So you're going to have to prove it.
But you came all the way down from Buffalo.
Yes.
Thank you.
That's cool.
Now, was that a great scene for you to get started in?
Or was it very friendly for you or not?
Yeah, well, it was kind of weird because when we first got started,
we weren't really accepted into the establishment of the scene or whatever in Buffalo.
So we kind of, with a guy that was managing us at the time, a guy named Artie,
he, you know, we kind of found our own scene.
We just made our own scene.
Right.
You know, and then it grew out of that.
And a lot of bands are getting going now.
And there's a lot of great bands in Buffalo.
So.
Cool.
They're taking your lead then, right?
Yeah.
[F] Now, is there, so let's say then you have a very strong work ethic as far as like getting your own band going.
I mean, is that like one of [N] the ideological links behind the Goo Goo Dolls?
Oh, yeah.
Are you very spiritual and theoretical people?
I guess.
Well, theoretically or spiritually?
I don't know.
What are we talking about here?
No.
Yeah, sure.
I guess so.
I don't know.
I guess everyone is in their own thing, [Dm] I guess.
Yeah, I mean, because I've read in articles you guys are, you know,
I've been quoted as saying, you know, your music is kind of about, yeah, things are bad [E] around, but, you know, let's make it through.
But let's.
Let's rock.
[B] Yeah.
[E] No, I guess our motto is, [D#] you know, life hands you a lemon, throw it at someone.
Excellent.
Excellent.
_ So now what have you guys been listening to lately?
I mean, your record is, I think there's people [N] already out there sounding like you.
And I know you guys have been compared to other people and stuff.
But what have you guys been listening to lately?
Lately?
Sam.
Sam and I am.
See, look.
You can tell by the free T-shirt.
Excellent.
Right.
Right.
And, _ _ oh, I don't know.
Magnum.
I love that Magna Pop record.
Very good.
That's a great record.
Very good.
And now, didn't you guys, Magna Pop, you guys have something in common.
They were produced by Bob Mould.
Did you guys work with the same producer as Sugar?
Yes.
Yeah, one.
Yeah.
Lou Giordano.
Yeah.
And how did that go?
I mean, because he's also from the old Husker Due Days as well. Yeah.
Well, he's like a totally cool guy and a great producer, you know, and just.
A lot of fun.
Upstanding dude.
Great.
Upstanding citizen.
[G#m] Now, you guys are going out on the road soon, right?
Or now?
Yeah.
Or are you already playing?
You're playing here.
Saturday night.
Cool.
Actually, though, and I warned you, I was going to sit real close because you're going to serenade me.
Come on, now.
And you're going to play the song now.
[G#] Get your head, Jani.
[A] What are you going to play?
What are you going to play?
Well, [N] actually, this is sort of a departure from the rest of the record and it's kind of a mellow tune.
It's called Name.
Okay, dude.
Okay, man.
I mean.
Cool.
Man dude.
Man, guy, man dude.
I know you.
I know you.
You're that dude.
Dude.
Remember that time with the guy in the thing?
Yeah, right.
He overhooked with the thing.
Yeah, man.
Yeah.
All right, cool.
Let's hear something from the Goo Goo Dolls.
Okay.
Wait, something's got me in the. _
Good.
Something got me in the behind there.
Squeaky boy.
Take it, Peach. Three.
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ [E] _
[A] I never knew their names.
[F#m] You don't belong [E] to no one left [A] to see.
_ _ [F#] You could hide [E] beside me, [A] maybe for a while.
[F#m] And I won't [E] tell no one [D] your name.
[A] _ And I won't tell them your name.
[E] _ _ [A] _ _ [F#m] _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] And scars are souvenirs you never [A] lose.
The [F#m] past is [B] never far. _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] And did you lose [E] yourself somewhere [A] out there?
[F#m] Did you get to be [A] a star? _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] And don't it make you sad to know [A] that life [F#] is more than who [A] we are?
_ _ _ _ _ [F#m] You grew up way [E] too fast.
But now [A] there's nothing to believe.
[F#m] When reruns [E] all become our [A] history.
A _ [F#m] tired drum [E] keeps playing on [A] a tired radio.
[F#m] And I won't [E] tell no one [A] your name.
_ And I won't tell them [A] your name.
[E] _ _ [B] _ And I [E] won't tell them your name. _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ [E] _ [A] Uh-huh.
[E] And I won't tell them your name. _ _ _ _ _ _
[F#] _ _ [E] _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
[F#m] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Hey.
I _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[E] think about you all the time.
And I'll be the same.
_ _ _ _ _ [A] It's lonely where [E] you are.
Come back down.
And I won't tell them [A] your name.
_ _ _ _ _ All right.
[N] Excellent.
Thank you.
Now, you know, the thing is, a couple of years ago,
The Love Me Up came out.
I thought that that was going to be the record that totally pushed you over.
Do you have any predictions for this one?
It will push us over at least as much as [C] Love Me Up.
I really thought that was a great_
Or it may push us over the edge.
Well, [G] I'm expecting big things from you guys.
Mark my words.
You're going to be a hit.
So hopefully we can [D#] hear another song from you guys a little later on as well, right?
Thank you guys very much for coming.
And ladies and gentlemen, the record just went to the [D] stores.
You can pick it up.
That's tough when people can't wait to start clapping.
I know, right?
Still to come, we're going FX Online.
And up next,
One, [E] two, three, four.
I'm Joe Grand.
It's Talkin' Folk.
We'll be right back. _
