1. Brand New Day - Straight Outta Junior High
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Jason Mayer
Email: rockzep@alltel.net
Tuning: Standard
This is one my favorite SOJH songs. And I always hoped someone would tab it but I could
find it so I decided I’d give it a try. It may not be perfect but it sounds about right
me. It’s for sure a hell of a lot better than the intro that’s already on here. I’m not
sure what he was listening to. Anyways this is my shot at Brand New Day from the
and only SOJH, if you have any comments or corrections let me know and I’ll change them.

After Bridge go straight to verse- it’s played twice here. The first time is the same as
but the second time it is played like this with a pause. Listen to it and you’ll figure
out.
