then just listen to the song and pick up where verse does in the song.
Then just play the Chorus after that.

There is more to the solo but i'm pretty laxidasical today so i didn't put it all in there. But just go crazy and improvise.

This is my first tab, but i know for a fact that the chords are all correct. but if you find any problems w/ my tab then just fix 'em.

If ya have a song you can't find the tabs for just e-mail me at greenday48845@yahoo.com and i'll try to get them on the site as fast as i can.

Have fun and go crazy!
