GREEN DAY - "at the library" Tablature

Title: At the Library
Artist: Green Day

transcribed by Tom Caja Jinx409@aol.com

This is a really cool song off of 39/Smooth (a whooping "huh?"
from trendies). You may have to improvise some parts, so just
listen to the song a few times, but it's a LOT of fun to play.
All tuning IS standard.

intro play 2X

verse 2
chorus

then that second part for awhile, and fade to a palm mute
on a G5 chord (why did you have to have to leave so soon?...)
and a played out D5 on "away?"

go to the second guitar part 8X (oh well it happened again...)

the coda's the same as the intro, ending with the impossible
guitar solo, and a powerful G5
