great youve saved me from buying a 40 dollar tab book! but one minor correction : in the solo for wake me up in sep., youve put single notes G5 and G5/F# on the wrong string. it should be on the D, not A. other than that great!
October 9 2004, 12:00 am by distortionsucks |

October 13 2004, 12:00 am by sadistic_monkey |

btw, solo = riff 2. Play the octaves.

this is really good for one gitarist, in some place, i think that it is excellent i bet this took you a long time to tab, um i gave it 5 stars and i think that it is good, i think people should try to work out the solos for themselves. i think that this tab is ***ing awesome, um you must be a ***ing good guitarist!!!!
December 20 2004, 12:00 am by TheMutts |

February 21 2005, 12:00 am by Chequerd Maniac |
Hey this really made me happyyour a Legend and the detail you went into was sweet just unbeleavable and to anyone who thought this was *** they either can't play guitar or can't read tab. Anyway nice one and keep rockin'

February 23 2005, 12:00 am by IbanezInsomniac |
I really think that the solo is a bit off

how long did this take you?

but good job on it

really awesome, i dont get how u managed 2 make a hole album tab. i don hav the patience 4 a hole song tab. the end of the solo 4 american idiot is a little off tho. it should b this:

March 23 2005, 12:00 am by stumaster18 |
holiday is wrong. the intro should be different, but I'm too lazy to put it here cause I just woke up. :)
March 31 2005, 12:00 am by mid_air |
This tab is absolutly AMAZING!!!!! duuuuuuuuuude how long did it take you to write it all out??? I love you dude, you have saved me a lot of my time, and whoa, I mean, this is absolutly fansastic!!!

And to Noggin boy, F**k off. This is for comments and corrections on the tabs, not on the spiggin' band. So if you just f**k off, and keep your petty excuses to yourself.

Anyway, I found out that American Idiot's solo is a little off. The end anyway.
|------------------8----------------
|-----9-----11---------------9~-----
|-8-8---8-8----8-8---8-8-8-8--------
|-----------------------------------
|-----------------------------------
|-----------------------------------
Other than that, the whole tabe is great!

Also, the intro to 'Holiday', I thought sounded a bit wrong. Shouldn't it be like this?

|----------------
|----------------
|--10--6--13--8--
|--10--6--13--8--
|--8---4--11--6--
|----------------

But that's my suggestion, it might not be right, but hey! If I'm wrong, I'm sorry.

Keep on rockin' dude.

April 2 2005, 12:00 am by csheridan |
I was wonderin if u knew how to play the chords that play in the background of whatsername, i dunno if its something im missing. Anyway dude thats a kick ass tab!
April 9 2005, 12:00 am by reizig |
The chords in the background are the same chords being played in the foreground, they're just strummed once.
+1   April 10 2005, 12:00 am by csheridan |
Gotcha. thanks alot. but i think those chords could be played like this in standard tuning:

E------------------------
B------------------------
G------------------------
D------7-----------------
A--5---5----4----9--7----
E--3--------2----7--5----

but thats just a suggestion, it could be wrong. -keep it up man!

-1   April 23 2005, 12:00 am by reizig |
Maybe if you bothered to check, not all of these tabs appear as other tabs. And the ones that do have my name on it. Also, this tab has been here since before the album was released.

Idiot.

mid air has the solo right for american idiot. and that and jesus of suburbia are the only ones i looked at but you did a great job man
July 2 2005, 12:00 am by Bubkus123 |
This tab is good. It is close to being very good.
It is not "AMAZING!!" like a lot of people are saying.
A lot of the songs, "...September Ends" in particlular, are actually pretty mediocre.
Still, it is a job well done, and I salute Rezig for his work on this tab.

OMG... thank u sooo much... ive been trying to play this album since it came out but ive failed till now!!! Billie Joe must be proud of you (by the way, if anyone is gonna spell Billie Joe - spell it correctly, i mean, he is such a great singer/guitarist so give him the curtisy)
July 7 2005, 12:00 am by Tedrick |
I LOVE this CD and this band. You put a lot of hard work into this tab but, it is wrong in several areas. You still get 5 stars for hard work though.

this is a kick ass tab!!! my only problem is with the people who compare this tab to the book/books. the people that write those books are just normal guys like the rest of us, they arent the actual artists. they are just listening to the songs over and over again, so it doesn't mean that they are 100% right. i mean, they are usually pretty dam close, but it doesnt mean it is perfect...
February 28 2006, 02:48 pm by watisthechord? |
if dimebag darrel had a guest solo on this before he was murdered then it would be ****in A-MA-Z-ING. but ur tab still rocks man. (im not sure that mike dirnt did sing nobody likes you, i think that songs dedicated to Gibsonguy64) over and out asslickers

w000t dude... BlackTaxi2d... billY joe? :O
you should be ashamed of yourself ;)
BillIE joe :D
anyway...GREAT TAB :)
April 13 2006, 10:06 pm by gdm09 |
Liam....you suck. your just upset this tab is better than your album version.
April 15 2006, 08:03 am by wangmaster |
freaking mint. I have the book and this is better. easier to play and understand, too. btw in letterbomb its 'the town bishops an extortionist' not 'the televisions an obstructionist' for christs sake lol. bar that 100,000,000 stars.
April 15 2006, 01:42 pm by linkq23 |
great tab thanks
April 17 2006, 12:31 am by greendayperson |
Good tab, dude. one suggestion. I think it's a little easier to play that fast part of the solo like this.

E-----4-----6-----8-----6---4~----
B-4-4---4-4---4-4---4-4---4-------
G---------------------------------
D---------------------------------
A---------------------------------
E---------------------------------

~= vibrato.
April 17 2006, 06:12 pm by Royokyo_Saturos |
Man, this must have taken a while. Bravo! One of the best tabs Ive seen on this site!
April 19 2006, 07:51 am by -->MoShEr<-- |
woah..it's awesome. Thanks heaps.
April 20 2006, 04:52 am by Cr3sc3nT |
great tab man. thx a lot
April 22 2006, 11:27 pm by madbass |
BRAVO! And I don't even like punk!!
May 6 2006, 07:10 am by green_rox |
ARGGGG!!! WHY CAN'T ANYONE GET THE SOLO RITE???? (wake me up when september ends) It's played on the high E and B strings. i have a tab for this solo that's waiting. check it out
May 6 2006, 07:10 am by green_rox |
but the rest is sick man nice tab
May 22 2006, 10:51 am by eldanny |
OK a few mistakes but pretty good BUT why the f**k do you put each chord once... its pretty damn confusing
May 28 2006, 03:27 am by godons |
this must have taken u years to make! its awesome! i love it and think that every note in ur tab is 100% right
awesome work m8
keep tabbing for us losers who can't do it ourselves
June 2 2006, 11:32 am by topdogII |
WHY ARE PEOPLE TRYING TO CHANGE IT ITS FUCKIN PERFECT AS IT IS!!!!
June 3 2006, 09:03 am by gtrplayr1 |
the second chord in City of the damned, Jesus of suburbia, its all full chords on acoustic (or clean): C#, G#, Bbm7, G#. i found this out in a magazine, try this and see if u like it better
June 3 2006, 09:06 am by gtrplayr1 |
Part 5 (J.O.S) is wrong totally, except for the first part, the solo is terrible, sound it out a little better man
June 7 2006, 06:50 am by punk_rocker2247 |
ok dude this tab is realli good. nice job...and fuk everybody hu thinks hes wrong cuz he got it rite. u guys r jsut wannabe guitarists
reizig nice job keep tabin
June 7 2006, 02:01 pm by dav3011 |
nope it is not actually perfect the main riffs for holiday and american idiot are strummed in the wrong order. u all probably think i'm just 'a wannabe guitarist' as somebody described it but i am not as cheap as everybody else because i actually bought the tab book!!

green day ROCKS!!

(but i like sum 41 better!)
June 9 2006, 04:57 pm by bbrocks218 |
wow, gotta give you a lot of credit for putting all the time and effort into making this tab. Great job!!! Also, Green Day rox! XD
June 18 2006, 09:49 pm by disarm |
your version is better than the tab book. best tab for the best album by the best band of all time. in other words good job.
June 25 2006, 07:03 am by green_rox |
this tab is genius! 5-star 4sure!!!! U have way more patience than i ever will! Just one comment (hope u don't mind constructive critisism) : On the solo for Wake Me Up When September Ends, u played it on the G and B strings. Try playing it on the B and high E strings. It makes ur fingers stretch less... a 3 fret stretch is pretty difficult for small hands.... i prefer 2 fret stretches. w/e... Ur best tab.... definitely Jesus of Suburbia! Nice job man! but shouldnt the chorus be played twice?
June 26 2006, 02:55 pm by littleguitarguy |
well done, these r great, ur a appriciated man!
June 30 2006, 05:43 pm by PsYkO_kiLLa90 |

dude this is probably the most accurate tab ive seen for an album on this entire website i wonder how long it took for u to figure this out AND write it. but gnrfan4life is rite if u listen closely u can here more than one strum but otherwise no one can complain about the results u get from this tab
July 18 2006, 01:58 am by rocker301 |

July 21 2006, 05:37 pm by guitar_geek_43 |

October 8 2006, 08:57 am by dark_falco3000 |
good tab, I dunno if there are any errors, maybe there are, maybe there aren't. However this wouldn't be as hard to tab as people say it is... most of it's just power chords. Really people... calm down. No need to have an orgasm over it.
October 17 2006, 10:19 am by Kena_Stuart |
wow, I'm just starting to play guitar.. and this is amazing... It's easy to understand and soooo correct! thanks alot. I wish I had your talent dude, Im your fan ;) Ow, if you got time, send me a personal message plaese, or send a mail like to chat with you :)
I've got a lot to learn

October 28 2006, 10:06 pm by Squirrel1993 |
pretty good. the only one i dont like as much is ur blvd but o well. also for a mental not...he said he didn't put the strumming so stop correcting it! also! could anyone do a whatsername tab for standard tuning? that be totaly sweet! besides that it looks all good.

someone may have said it before but the holiday intro is wrong
you don't strum the the D and G strings just the 8th fret on the A string and 9th fret on the B.
April 24 2009, 06:29 pm by BLAH-BLAH-MAN |
lukesta74 if you said greenday sucks why would you be on this tab?
May 8 2009, 10:44 am by FlameGame |
hey i dont want to upset anybody but either u or sum1 else is a copy!!
i bought a tab book (a ver foolish thing to do dese days) and i saw the exact like xerox of these tabs!!!

NICE TAB THOUGH!!! n almost 3 of the corrections are wrong her!

What does 12/ mean?
June 13 2009, 02:02 am by razza guitar |
really good dude
July 8 2009, 10:15 am by mattiwillohouse |
12/ means slide up to 12th fret (i think). This is generally a really good tab. I would do one or two things differently but so what, if it sounds ok then it's good enough.

you cant even put how many times to strum for american idiot and was to lazy top put the whole solo to holiday but i figured it myself

Reizig. Are We The Waiting needs a small adjustment. The pre-chrous, as was mentioned previously in this comment/correction section, is incorrect on one chord. The Fm you have listed should be an F#m. Easily played to sound similarly just using a barre F#m and then an open E for the next part. But this is just a suggestion. Other than that, amazing job.

Pretty awesome tab, makes it easy to learn and everything.
Problems: "The television is an obstructionist" - What?
The pull-off part of the solo in Tales From Another Broken Home.
That's all.
Altogether, very nice work.

The 100% correct way to play the chorus from Jesus of Suburbia; Tales From Another Broken Home. I was playing around when I found this out. Jesus of Suburbia is the best song on American Idiot. I did however learn from this tab.
