Platypus chords by Green Day

Band: Green Day
Song: Platypus (I Hate You)
Album: Nimrod, track 8, Reprise Records, 1997

WARNING!!!: If played properly, this song can really hurt your wrist,elbow,
shoulder and hand. This song makes Basket Case seem like a slow waltz.

I minimally censored some of the lyrics,
even though we all know what they are.
