Artist: Green Day Title: At the Library Album: 39/Smooth (1989) Transcribed by: tom Caja Jinx409@aol.com Edited by: Chris Coffey Eurystheus_666@hotmail.com There is already a chords (.crd) version of this in the archive. It was transcribed by Tom Caja His version is perfect to be used as a background guitar (guitar 2) should you choose. but, it is a great start. My version here includes all of the little variables Billie Joe uses in all of his recordings. My version sounds amzingly good, and exactly like the original version recorded/published in 1989.
h = hammer on ~ = let ring (sustain) Intro |----------------------|--------------------| |----------------------|--------------------| |----------------------|---------------0----| |------4--0-----5--0---|--0-0-4--0-----5--0-| |--5-5-5--0-3-3-3--0---|--5-5-5--0-3-3-3--0-| |----------------------|--------------------| |----------------------|--------------------| |----------------------|--0--0--0--0--0--0--| |---------------0------|--4--4--4--4--4--4--| |--0-0-4--0-----5--0---|--4--4--4--4--4--4--| |--5-5-5--0-3-3-3--0---|--2--2--2--2--2--2--| |----------------------|--------------------| Verse |--------------|--------------|--------------| |--------------|--------------|--------------| |----------0h--|----------0h--|-------0--0h--| |-------0------|-------4------|--------------| |--------------|-2--2---------|-3--3---------| |-3--3---------|--------------|--------------| |--------------|--------------|--------------|--------------| |--------------|--------------|--------------|-------------=| |-------2--0h--|----------0h--|----------0h--|-------0--0h--| |-0--0---------|-------0------|-------4------|--------------| |--------------|--------------|-2--2---------|-3--3---------| |--------------|-3--3---------|--------------|--------------| |--------------| |--------------| |-------2--0h--| |-0--0---------| |--------------| |--------------| Chorus |--------------------||--R--|-------| |--------------------||--E--|-------| |-----------5-5-5-5--||--P--|--7h~--| |--2-22-2---5-5-5-5--||--E--|--5h~--| |--2-22-2---3-3-3-3--||--A--|--5h~--| |--0-00-0------------||--T--|-------| Harmonics |--3-----7-----12--------------| |-----3-----7----------12------| |------------------11----------| |--------------------------12--| |------------------------------| |------------------------------| |----------------12--------------| |------------------------12------| |12------12--11------11------11--| |----12--------------------------| |--------------------------------| |--------------------------------| SOLO: |3--------------------|--------------3--|--3--------7--7--7--| |3--3--3--3--3--3--3--|--3--3--3--3--3--|--3--3--3--8--8--8--| |---------------------|-----------------|--------------------| |---------------------|-----------------|--------------------| |---------------------|-----------------|--------------------| |---------------------|-----------------|--------------------| |7--8--8--10--10--10--10--10--|--8--8--7--7-------5-----| |8--8--8--8---8---8---8---8---|--8--8--8--8-------------| |-----------------------------|-----------------7-------| |-----------------------------|-------------------------| |-----------------------------|-------------------------| |-----------------------------|-------------------------| --8--8-----7--7-----8--8--|--10--10-----8--7--6-5-4-3-----| --8--8-----8--8-----8--8--|--8---8------8--8--7-6-5-5-----| --------------------------|-------------------------------| --------------------------|-------------------------------| --------------------------|-------------------------------| --------------------------|-------------------------------| |3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--|--3--3--3--3--3--3--3-|3--3--3---3--3-| |3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--|--3--3--3--3--3--3--3-|3--3--3---3--3-| |------------------------|----------------------|---------------| |------------------------|----------------------|---------------| |------------------------|----------------------|---------------| |------------------------|----------------------|---------------| |-----|-----|-----| |--3--|--3--|--3--| |-----|-----|-----| |-----|-----|-----| |-----|-----|-----| |-----|-----|-----| Bridge: |-----| |--5--| |--5--| } Palm Mute, do it a bunch of times |--3--| |-----| then change to: |-----| |-----| |--7--| |--7--| } Hammer on this chord, do once |--5--| & let it sustain/ring |-----| Order: (follow the song/lyrics for change-ups) Intro Verse Harmonics Verse Chorus Verse Chorus Verse (once) Solo Bridge Verse Intro Harmonics End on a G5 (power chord), & hammer that sucker! |-3-5-5-x-x-x-| Verse I Chorus Verse II (Chorus) ...
