Title: Give Me Novacaine
Album: American Idiot
Email: crazymopoke@hotmail.com
By: Asheroth
Tuning: Standard (E,A,D,G,b,e) (Low to High)

The current Give Me Novacaine tabs are mostly correct note-wise, but they don't seem
to give the sound of the chords in the recording.  Here you are:

Note:  The second chord in the verse is some weird inversion of F#m, at least,
it's got all the right notes in it.  My chord theory's not the best.

 Intro/Verse

    A                F#m              Bm               E

There's no structure in this tab, but you guys are smart, and it's not a complicated song...
you'll get it.
