Band- Welcome to Paradise Song- Green Day IMPORTANT!!!! The first thing you need to know about this song is that the guitar is tuned down a half step. Therefore, E is E flat, A is A flat and so on. If you don't want to tune your guitar down, then you'll just have to look up another version which is probably wrong. I'll show you the part in the tab which requires you to tune your guitar down. Or you could just play the tabs anyway, without the right note. I'm just picky about these things. Oh yea, and listen to the song for the correct rythym of strumming.
