Subject: When I Come Around by Green Day

All the best songs on album we're tabbed already, but here's one that's really
fun to play...Turn down your tone and crank the distortion:

|--------------------------------------------
|-------------------------------------------- The rhythm changes later, but
|-------------------------------------------- it's not hard to work out.
|------4------4--------11-------13------9----
|----4-4------4--------11-------13------9----
|--------2-2--2----9-9--9----11-11----7-7----


Chorus: |---------------------------------
|---------------------------------
|---------------------------------
|----6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6/-9-9-9-9-9--- etc.
|----6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6/-9-9-9-9-9---
|----4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4/-7-7-7-7-7---

-After the 2nd chorus add this little riff which is strangly reminiscent of
"Today":
|----------------------------------------------------
|----------------------------------------------------
|-11----11----13----13----------11----11------------- or something
|----11----11----11----11----13----13---------------- like that
|----------------------------------------------------
|----------------------------------------------------

- And there you go. take 'er easy...

neat chords, neat melody. chords are played in barre style (except
for the a chord in the chorus).

when i come around, green day

G D E C
i heard you crying loud
all the way across town
etc.

chorus
A C
no time to search the world around
'cause you know where i'll be found
when i come around

i don't know the solo, but it kinda sounds like the intro to 'today'
by smashing pumpkins.
