Subject:      When I Come Around by Green Day

All the best songs on album we're tabbed already, but here's one that's really
  fun to play...Turn down your tone and crank the distortion:

|--------------------------------------------
|--------------------------------------------   The rhythm changes later, but
|--------------------------------------------      it's not hard to work out.
|------4------4--------11-------13------9----
|----4-4------4--------11-------13------9----
|--------2-2--2----9-9--9----11-11----7-7----


Chorus:    |---------------------------------
           |---------------------------------
           |---------------------------------
           |----6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6/-9-9-9-9-9---  etc.
           |----6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6/-9-9-9-9-9---
           |----4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4/-7-7-7-7-7---

-After the 2nd chorus add this little riff which is strangly reminiscent of
  "Today":
          |----------------------------------------------------
          |----------------------------------------------------
          |-11----11----13----13----------11----11-------------  or something
          |----11----11----11----11----13----13----------------    like that
          |----------------------------------------------------
          |----------------------------------------------------

-  And there you go.  take 'er easy...

neat chords, neat melody.  chords are played in barre style (except
for the a chord in the chorus).

when i come around, green day

G		D		E		C
	    i heard you crying loud
	    all the way across town
		etc.

chorus
A			C
	no time to search the world around
	'cause you know where i'll be found
					when i come around

i don't know the solo, but it kinda sounds like the intro to 'today'
by smashing pumpkins.

:      On the    x    just Palm mute.
:      On the solo just bar the e,b,g strings at the 3rd fret and
:      apreggiate them and use pinky to play 5 or 6 on the e string
:      Then it look like the Em chord and then the A but I'm, not sure.
