On The Wagon Green Day Longview Single (1994) Lyrics: Billie Joe Armstrong Music: Green Day Tuning: 1/2 step down (sounds a semitone lower than written here) Notes: There are 3 distinct guitar tracks on this song: guitar 1 is standard Green Day overdrive, and guitars 2 and 3 are cleaner, blusier sounding tracks. Guitar 3 (right speaker) mostly does picking patterns on the chords guitar 2 (left speaker) plays, so I won't bother tabbing guitar 3 out. On the chorus, it sounds like everyone's playing the same thing, so I'll only tab out guitar 1. On verse 3, stop the D5 after 1 strum. h = hammer-on p = pull-off b = bend / = slide up \ = slide down 5 = power chord Intro Guitar 1 G5 C5 G5 D5 G5 D5

(Verse 1) For an input twice the size Of my one inch mind So slap me on the head Put it right back down my pants (Verse 2) Turn me right around Kick me in the ass Well today I say sweet things But tomorrow (Chorus) I'll be makin up excuses For my actions cuz it's been so long Since I've been in love That special kind of feeling I guess my best excuse (Verse 3) I'm on the wagon again (Bridge) (Chorus) (Verse 3) Well I got no real excuse (End) I'm on the wagon again
