***NOTE***
I'm sorry if this tab is posted twice, I'd like to delete my old one from the
but I don't know how to, can someone send me a message to explain how? Thank you in advance!!
Hello everyone, this is my first tab, and it's a painfully easy one. You don't need a
of drumming skills to play this song- that's why I'm able to post it!!! ;) I'm a beginner
and I tabbed this by ear. Please rate and comment!!! Have fun!!!
I took a lot of time to make this tab, because I wanted to sync the words with the beat
best I could. Notice the first word of each set is lined up with the note (or at least I
it is lined with the correct one....). I hope that helps you some, especially if you're
starting out.
....And I'm REALLY sorry, but I'm not sure if the Low Tom or the High Tom is on the
X( I don't own a real set; just the Ion Drum Rocker... I wrote this assuming the low
is
the left, next to the snare.
This is now my favorite Green Day song. The words are so beautiful! I'm so glad he wrote
song.
C- Crash cymbal
H- HiHat cymbal
S- Snare
B- Bass
R- Ride cymabal
FT- Floor Tom
HT- High Tom
LT- Low Tom

Lyrics:
I text a postcard sent to you, did it go through?
Sending all my love to you.
You are the Moonlight of my life; every night.
Giving all my love to you.
My beating heart belongs to you.
I've walked for miles til I found you.
I'm here to honor you.
If I lose everything in the fire, I'm sending all my love to you.
With every breath that I'm worth, here on earth,
I'm sending all my love to you.
So, if you dare to second guess, you can rest,
assured that all my love's for you.
My beating heart belongs to you.
I've walked for miles til I found you.
I'm here to honor you.
If I lose everything in the fire, I'm sending all my love to you.
My beating heart belongs to you.
I've walked for miles til I found you.
I'm here to honor you.
If I lose everything in the fire, did I ever make it through?
