Welcome to Paradise - Green Day (Dookie)-------------------------------------------------------------------------------By: Rocko    website: http://www.geocities.com/dingusstudios    e-mail: Freakazoid11588@hotmail.comIMPORTANT!!!!The first thing you need to know about this song is that the guitar is tuneddown a half step. Therefore, E is E flat, A is A flat and so on. If you don'twant to tune your guitar down, then you'll just have to look up another versionwhich is probably wrong. I'll show you the part in the tab which requires youto tune your guitar down. Or you could just play the tabs anyway, without theright note. I'm just picky about these things.Oh yea, and listen to the song for the correct rythym of strumming.Intro: Play 4xe|--------------------------------------------|B|--------------------------------------------|G|-----9--9-9-9--9-9--7-7-7-------------------|D|-----9--9-9-9--9-9--7-7-7--7--7-7-7---------|A|-----7--7-7-7--7-7--5-5-5--7--7-7-7---------|E|---------------------------5--5-5-5---------|Verse: Play 2xe|-------------------------------------------------------|B|-------------------------------------------------------|G|-----9--9--9-9-9--7--7-7--7-7-7--9--9-9--9-9-9-9-9-----|D|-----9--9--9-9-9--7--7-7--7-7-7--9--9-9--9-9-9-9-9-----|A|-----7--7--7-7-7--5--5-5--5-5-5--7--7-7--7-7-7-7-7-----|E|-------------------------------------------------------|e|-------------------------------------------------------------------|B|-------------------------------------------------------------------|G|-----9--9--9-9-9--7--7-7--7-7-7------------------------------------|D|-----9--9--9-9-9--7--7-7--7-7-7--5--5--5-5-5--9-9-9--9-9-9-9-------|A|-----7--7--7-7-7--5--5-5--5-5-5--5--5--5-5-5--9-9-9--9-9-9-9-------|E|---------------------------------3--3--3-3-3--7-7-7--7-7-7-7-------|Verse End: Just add this on to the end of the verse the second time you play ite|-----------------------------------------------|B|-----------------------------------------------|G|-----------------------------------------------|D|--5--5--5-5-5--9-9-9--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9----|A|--5--5--5-5-5--9-9-9--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9----|E|--3--3--3-3-3--7-7-7--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7----|Chorus: Repeat 2x.

And if you do it that way, the lowest note in the choruswon't be possible. If you try it with out the tuning it will be like 1-1-0, andthat of course won't work. Now back to the song.1.
