I decided to correct and format the existing TAB of this song.
Mucho thanks to [email protected]. Follows is the corrected TAB,
plus some bass TAB.
Here is yet another awesome Green Day song from Kerplunk! that was
posted in an ftp, but it was missing key parts needed to play the
song, so I have added them so you can play the whole song. This is
NOT IN STANDARD TUNING!!! If you want to play it right you HAVE TO
tune down a half step, because the 
E MajorE is open. NOTE: You do tune down
one half-step, BUT you still play the chord names as if you were in
standard tuning:
B: x244xx
E: 022xxx
F#: 244xxx
etc...
(looks best in Courier)
