This is a great song by Green Day. 
It's also really easy to play... after you get the hang of it. 
The very beginning is repeated a few times, 
and is also the hardest part of the entire song. If you can get that, you've got it! 
It's all Powerchords, and if you have any experience playing Green Day 
songs, it should feel close to "Minority," but with an interesting little twist. 

Chords you'll need:

Ab: 466xxx
Bb: 688xxx
C#: x466xx
Eb: x688xx
**You could also tune your guitar up a half-step and play it as G, A, C, and D, 
which sounds like something Billie Joe would do**


Intro:
(This is the part that I said is tricky. Listen to the CD, this is VERY fast. 
Only play each for one beat, except the C# and the final G#)

Ab Bb Eb Ab-C# x3
Ab Bb Eb Ab

(This is the main rythym figure, slow it down. One whole measure each:)

Ab Bb C# Eb x2

Verse 1:
Ab              Bb       C#       Eb                     Ab
 I wish I could tell you, but the words would come out wrong.
           Bb       C#         Eb
Oh, if you only knew the way I felt for so long.
Ab                Bb           C#     Eb                  Ab
I know that we're worlds apart, but I just don't seem to care.
        Bb                C#          Eb                Ab
These feelings in my heart, only with you I want to share.

Chorus:
(Repeat Intro)
The first time I caught a glimpse of you
Then my thoughts were only of you

Break:
Ab  Bb C# Eb
Wah-ha-ah-ah

Ab Bb C# Eb

Verse 2:
Ab                Bb           C#        Eb                   Ab
 I hope that when time goes by, you will think the same about me.
            Bb         C#      Eb                      Ab 
Many nights awake I lie I only wish that you could see.
                  Bb          C#           Eb               Ab
I know that we're only friends I hope this feeling never ends.
           Bb            C#             Eb 
If I could only hold you, it's the only thing I want to do.

Chorus:
(Repeat intro)
The first time I caught a glimpse of you
Then my thoughts were only of you.

Break 2:
(Repeat Intro as many times as nessecary)
Woah-oh

Woah-woah

Woah-ho

Woah-oh

(Solo)

Ab Bb C# Eb x2

Ab   Bb C# Eb
Woah-oh-ah-ah
Ab Bb C# Eb
Ah-ha-ah-ha

Ab Bb C# Eb x2

End on G#


Will update if needed. I might just even put the solo up there. Oh, well. Tell your friends.
