Longview Green Day

[A#5] Bite my [G#5]lip and [D#5]close my [A#5]eyes.

Take me [G#5]away to [D#5]paradise.

[A#5] I'm so damn [G#5]bored I'm [D#5]going [A#5]blind and I smell like [G#5]shit.

(Armstrong then plays D#5 once before Dirnt's bass part)

Bass and Drums (No Guitar)

Verse 2:

Peel me off this Velcrow seat

And get me moving.

I sure as hell can't do it by myself.

I'm feeling like a dog in heat;

Barred indoors from the summer street.

I've locked the doors to my own cell and I've lost the key.

(Armstrong plays the C#5 until the chorus)

Chorus:

[A#5] Bite my [G#5]lip and [D#5]close my [A#5]eyes.

Take me [G#5]away to [D#5]paradise.

[A#5] I'm so damn [G#5]bored I'm [D#5]going [A#5]blind and I smell like [G#5]shit.

Bridge:

[D#5]I've got no [C#5]motivation.

[D#5]Where is my [C#5]motivation?

[D#5]No time for [C#5]motivation.

[D#5]Smoking my [C#5]inspi-[A#5]ration.[G#5] [D#5] [A#5] [G#5] [D#5] [A#5] [G#5] [D#5]

[A#5] [G#5]

(Armstrong then plays D#5 once before Dirnt's bass part)

Bass and Drums (No Guitar)

Verse 3:

I sit around and watch the phone

But no ones calling.

Call me pathetic, call me what you will.

My mother says to get a job

But she don't like the one she's got.

When masturbation's lost its fun you're fucking lonely.

(Armstrong plays the C#5 until the chorus)

Chorus 2:

[A#5] Bite my [G#5]lip and [D#5]close my [A#5]eyes.

Take me [G#5]away to [D#5]paradise.

[A#5] I'm so damn [G#5]bored I'm [D#5]going [A#5]blind

And lonli[G#5]ness has [D#5]to subside.

[A#5] Bite my [G#5]lip and [D#5]close my [A#5]eyes.

Slowly slipping [G#5]away to [D#5]paradise.

[A#5] Some say "[G#5]Quit, or [D#5]I'll go [A#5]blind" but it's just a [G#5]myth.

#Green Day- Longview
#Tabbed by NickDaBeast
#
#Hey guys. This is my first tab. Please rate me. This is for the
#classic Green Day song "Longview."
#
#This song has four basic power chords. They are:
#C#5:X466XX A#5:688XXX G#5:466XXX D#5:X688XX
#*A tip for these chords is to mute as many idle strings as
#possible. Then, you will have Armstrong's playing style in the
#palm of your hands and you will be able to play this song in
#authentic punk rock fassion.
#
#I have read tabs for this song and they either have gotten the
#chorus, bridge, or outro wrong. I am 100% possitive that there
#are no mistakes. I have listened to the song and this is the
#exact way that singer/guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong plays this
#song. Here's how you play it. I hope you have as much fun
#learning this song as I had. Good Luck!
#
#The verses are done by drummer Tre Cool's thundering drums and
#Mike Dirnt's unforgettable bass part (However, I have been known
#to play this part on a regular guitar tuned down 2 to 2 and 1/2
#steps). Here are the lyrics.
#
#Bass and Drums(No Guitar)
#Verse 1:
#I sit around and watch the tube but nothing's on.
#I change the channel's for an hour or two.
#Twiddle my thumbs just for a bit.
#I'm sick of all the same old shit.
#In the house with unlocked doors and I'm fucking lazy.
#
#*Ok here's where the guitar comes in: (Armstrong plays the C#5
#until the chorus)For every chord, I'll tell you when to change
#the chords. So just listen to the song for the strum pattern. The
#reason for this is because, if you ask me, it's very difficult to
#follow tablature for the strum pattern if the strums are at a
#breakneck pace as are these. Just listen to the song and if you
#don't own Dookie or International Superhits, you are missing out.
#Both cd's have the song on them. It doesn't matter just find a
#way to listen to the song. Like I said, it just always seems to
#me very hard to follow strum patterns when at a fast pace on tab.
#This way you'll know for sure how to play it. By the way,
#Armstrong adds a lot of dead notes during the chorus (especially
#after each strum in the chorus) and bridge. The outro is
#perfectly in tab.
#
#Chorus:
[A#5]    Bite my [G#5]lip and [D#5]close my [A#5]eyes.

Take me [G#5]away to [D#5]paradise.
[A#5]    I'm so damn [G#5]bored I'm [D#5]going [A#5]blind and I smell like [G#5]shit.
