Mail: jimbokers@yahoo.es
Tabbed by: Diego Deko P.
Band: Blink 182
Song: First Date
Track: #03
Album: Take Off Your Pants and Jacket (2001)


This is the version that Blink 182 played live on the Conan O´Brien Show.

I was sick of not finding a right tab for this song, so i had to tab it out on my own.
The intro part is partially different of the album one, but the rest of the song is
basically the same.
To make it sound alright you can play it in standard tuning and a bit faster than the original
and, very important, turn on the distortion a lot! It will sound okay.

So... the song´s great, enjoy and have fun!


P.M. |__| = palm-muting
* = play the note/s a lotta´ times
\ or / = slide (down/up)
\\\\\\ = power slide down
x = dead note
