JAR - Green Day

By: John K.

Yes, these are guitar tabs, but why not play the opening bass line?

~ = ring				SNARE
G|-----6~~~~~6~~~~~6~~~~~6~~~~~~6~~~~~6~~~~~6-|
D|-4-4--------------------6-4-6---------------|	Then the guitar comes in...
A|-------4-4----------------------4-4---------|
E|-------------4-4---6-6----------------4-4---|
						
And these are the power chords we shall use:
   	B (x2444x@1)	C# (x43121@1)   	F# (244322@1)  	G#C#minor (xx1114@1)       G#minor
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|------4-------6--------------------------4-------------13------------------|
D|------4-------6-------4-------6----------x-------------xx------------------|
A|------2-------4-------4-------6----------2-------------11------------------|
E|----------------------2-------4--------------------------------------------|

If he gave all he could give,

SOLO:
(Note: chord picking/strumming not shown)
(There are lots of neat ways to just improvise on this too)
*?*I think he throws either of these () in there in place of one less strum occasionally
(If that made sense)

Gotta make aplan, (x02210@1)x1
Gotta do what's right,

Can't run around in circles,	x1
If you wanna build a life,

But I don't wanna make a plan,  x1
For a day far away,

While I'm young and while I'm able,
All I wanna do is...

pick the last 5 notes pretty fast and get about a half step bend on the last
