Instrument: Bass Band: Green Day Song: Minority NOTE: The time signature in this song is 2/4. The way that I tabbed this may seem weird but it is correct. Take note of the use of triplets (i.e. In the –3-3-3-3- in Riff 1 the first 3 notes are a triplet and the fourth note is a quarter note. This method is used in Riffs 1 and 3). When you come to the end of a measure don’t stop - keep playing (especially in Riff 3).
