NIMROD
GREEN DAY




General Notes:	The chords are all played with their bass note on the E-string 			except when followed with an i then it's on the A-string.
			A " after a chord means it's the palm muted thingy.            Yeah
			Lastly, Good Riddance is not in 5ths.  It's open acoustic chords.
