From: "Tom L." 

Allright, here's my first attempt ever to tab a song, so bear with me...
(Coz I'm bound to screw up!!!)

The song's called "I want to be on TV" by Green Day.
It's a previously unreleased non-LP track, but now you can find it on the single 
CD "Geek Stink Breath" released in October '95.

Tune down half a step...

*** Heavy distortion + real fuzzed out sound ***

Riff A:

  r=release

Drums, bass and 2nd guitar kicks in at first time the riff gets repeated.
2nd guitar plays the same riff.

Vocals kick in at 4th time the riff repeats itself.

Riff B:
-------
Play this riff when BJ sings "I wanna be on TV..."

End the song with riff A, but add this last chord:

The lyrics? I couldn't understand much of them, kinda hard if you're not
a native English speaker. =P
Sorry, but you're on your own for that one...

P.S. Could the "veterans" (i.e. the more experienced) amongst the tabbers, 
transcribers give me some hints, clues for transcribing, tabbing songs?
I would appreciate this very much. =)

Green Day Minority
Green Day - Minorty Lyrics I want to be the minority I don't need your authority Down with the moral majority 'Cause I want to be the minority I pledge allegiance to the underworld One nation under dog There of which I stand alone A face in the crowd Unsung, against the mold Without a doubt Singled out The only way I know I want to be the minority I don't need your authority Down with the moral majority 'Cause I want to be the minority Stepped out of the line Like a sheep runs from the herd Marching out of time To my own beat now The only way I know One light, one mind Flashing in the dark Blinded by the silence of a thousand broken hearts "For crying out loud" she screamed unto me A free for all Fuck 'em all You are your own sight I want to be the minority I don't need your authority Down with the moral majority 'Cause I want to be the minority Don't want to be an American idiot. Don't want a nation under the new mania And can you hear the sound of hysteria? The subliminal mind fuck America. Welcome to a new kind of tension. All across the alien nation. Where everything isn't meant to be okay. Television dreams of tomorrow. We're not the ones who're meant to follow. For that's enough to argue. Well maybe I'm the faggot America. I'm not a part of a redneck agenda. Now everybody do the propaganda. And sing along to the age of paranoia. Welcome to a new kind of tension. All across the alien nation. Where everything isn't meant to be okay. Television dreams of tomorrow. We're not the ones who're meant to follow. For that's enough to argue. Don't want to be an American idiot. One nation controlled by the media. Information age of hysteria. It's calling out to idiot America. Welcome to a new kind of tension. All across the alien nation. Where everything isn't meant to be okay. Television dreams of tomorrow. We're not the ones who're meant to follow. For that's enough to argue.
