Island in the sun
Weezer 
The Green Album 
Transcribed by Ben Kuhn (bmk@kuhnco.com

This album is sweet. Although its only 28 minutes long, 
its still a kickass album. Every song is good. You might
have been able to catch weezer on Saturday Night Live when
they played on 5/19/01. They actually played island in the
sun. 
I haven't really tabbed many songs out, but this sounds
correct on my guitar, so it should on yours.
