Green Day - 86 Ver 2 guitar tab
Your rating:
Green Day 86 (Insomniac, 1995) I worked this out and it seems to one of the most simple Green Day songs I've learnt so far. Easy to get the hang of. As with almost all old GD, the guitars are tuned a fret down on this song, so it actually sounds lower than written here, but of course it sounds fine in standard tuning as the intervals are exactly the same. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Special tab notation: PICKSCRAPE = scrape the side of the pick along the strings to make a cool scrapey noise. P.M. = palm-muting = mute the played strings with the palm/side of your hand near the bridge. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- INTRO: Tre starts off the song, then Billie comes in with a quick pickscrape up: E5 G#5 A5 E|------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|----------------9--9-9--9-9-9-------------------------------------------| D|-/----------/---9--9-9--9-9-9---6--6-6--6-6-6---7--7-7--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-| A|-/PICKSCRAPE/---7--7-7--7-7-7---6--6-6--6-6-6---7--7-7--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-| E|-/----------/-------------------4--4-4--4-4-4---5--5-5--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-| x4, no scrapes on VERSE: the repeats E5 B5 A5 E|--------------------------------------------------------------------| B|--------------------------------------------------------------------| G|--------------------------------------------------------------------| D|-2--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-9--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-7--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-| A|-2--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-9--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-7--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-| E|-0--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-7--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-5--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-| | P.M.- - - - - - - - - | | P.M. - - - - - | | P.M. - - - | What brings you around?
