When It?s Time
Written by Green Day

I tabbed this from the version of the song from the American Idiot musical, not what
Day usually plays live (that version's just chords). Not everything is perfect but I got it
sound really close to the recording. Please rate and comment with improvements.

Intro: (play twice, pause in between)

   Words get trapped in my mind, sorry if I don?t take the time to
feel the way I do.                         		     ?Cause the

	But then I need your voice as the key to unlock all the love
that?s trapped in me.				            So tell me

   When it?s time, to say,      I love you.

C             G
All I want is you to understand, that

D                                    G
when I take your hand, it's 'cause I want to.

C                    G
     We are all born in a world of doubt

               D                D
But there's no doubt, I figured out

E|------------------------|
    I    love   you.

(This is played very *faint* (therefore might not be perfectly accurate) after ?I love
and before the 2nd verse)

	Yet they?ll never have someone like you to guide them and help along the way.
  Or tell them

G         D             (play intro)
When it's time to say I love you.

           G         D       D
So tell me when it's time to say I love you.

Outro: (played right after ?I love you")

				         Oooooooooh, oooooooh
(not completely sure about that last chord)

Enjoy & play on :)
