This is how it was played at that Jaded in Chicago MTV thing. 
I don?t know why he would play it in a  different key, so if
it dosn?t sound right, sorry about that. Tune to Eb
(looks best in Courier)

This is weird, but you?ll catch on

Intro:
B A A E E B B
B A A E E B B
B A A E E B B
B A A E E B B

Verse 1:
B             F#
Now I rest my head from
        E              B
Such an endless dreary time
  B                 F#
A time of hopes and happiness
     E             B
That had you on my mind
      B                 F#
Those days are gone and now it seems
   E                B
As if I'll get some rest
    B                 F#
But now and then I'll see you again
       E                B                           
And it puts my heart to test

Chorus:
   E               F#
So when are all my problems 
         B
Going to end?
    E             F#
I'm understanding now that
       B    Ab
We are only friends 
        A              E
To this day I'm asking why
                    B A A E E B B 4x
I still think about you

Verse 2:
As the days go on I wonder
Will this ever end ?
I find it hard to keep control
When you're with your boyfriend
I do not mind if all I am is 
Just a friend to you
But all I want to know right now
Is if you think about me too ?

Chorus

Solo (go crazy -- make something up)

Chorus

End on B

GREEN DAY   (1039 / Smoothed Out Slappy Hours)

This post is for all you true Green Day fans who have heard more than Basket Case, When I
Come Around, and Longview.  This is not for the people who say, "What?!  Green Day has more
than one album???"  In any case, here goes:

(INTRO:  A G-G D-D A-A   all barre chords)

A	         G
Now I rest my head from
	  D		A
Such an endless dreary time.
A                          G
A time of hope and happiness
        D                    A
That had you on my mind.
A                                   G
Those days are gone and now it seems
     D                   A
As if I'll get some rest.
A              	       G
But now and then I'll see you again
       D                          A
And put my heart to the test.

D                           E                      A-A D-A
So when are all my problems going to end?
D                        E
I'm understanding now that we are

As the days go on I wonder

I do not mind if all I an is
Just a friend to you.
But all I want to know right now
Is if you think about me too.

	(Chorus)
