Complete Tab of American Idiot (2004) by Green Day
Tabbed By Steve Gray (reizig@gmail.com)
Completed on 9/19/2004
Boulevard of Broken Dreams no longer sucks. Outro included.
***
This is a tab for the entire American Idiot Album, front to back,
lyrics included. If you want to post this somewhere, or use parts
of it, just keep my name and e-mail on it and you can do whatever
you want.
I am extremely confident about the accuracy of each tab, and I tried
to make each one as easy to understand as possible. But given the
structure of some of the songs, that was a little difficult. Just
pay close attention to the "Order" section of each tab and you'll be
fine.
For most of the tabs, the strumming pattern/timing is not included.
All tuning is standard (E A D G B E) except for Whatsername, which
is in drop D (D A D G B E).

Track 1: American Idiot
------------------------------------------------------------
Note: The xxx000 in the Main Riff/Verse is often overlooked.
Listen to the song carefully; it often replaces the final F#5.
As far as I've seen, though, they don't bother with it while
playing live, so you can just play an F#5 instead.

Lyrics:
Don't wanna be an American idiot
Don't want a nation under the new mania (Verse 1)
Can you hear the sound of hysteria?
The subliminal mind-fuck America
Welcome to a new kind of tension
All across the alien nation
Everything isn't meant to be OK (Chorus)
Television dreams of tomorrow
We're not the ones 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 (Verse 2)
Now everybody do the propaganda
And sing along in the age of paranoia
(Chorus)
Don't wanna be an American idiot
One nation controlled by the media (Verse 3)
Information age of hysteria
It's going out to idiot America
(Chorus)

Lyrics:
I'm the son of rage and love
The Jesus of Suburbia (Verse 1)
From the Bible of "none of the above"
On a steady diet of
Soda pop and Ritalin
No one ever died for my sins in hell (Verse 2)
As far as I can tell
At least the ones I've gotten away with
And there's nothing wrong with me
This is how I'm supposed to be (Chorus)
In a land of make believe
That don't believe in me
Get my television fix
Sitting on my crucifix (Verse 3)
The living room in my private womb
While the moms and brads are away
To fall in love and fall in debt
To alcohol and cigarettes (Verse 4)
And Mary Jane to keep me insane
And doing someone else's cocaine
(Chorus)

Lyrics:
At the center of the earth
In the parking lot (Verse 1)
Of the 7-11 were I was taught
The motto was just a lie
It says home is were your heart is
But what a shame (Verse 2)
Cause everyone's heart doesn't beat the same
We're beating out of time
City of the dead
At the end of another lost highway
Sign misleading to nowhere (Chorus)
City of the damned
Lost children with dirty faces today
No one really seems to care
I read the graffiti
In the bathroom stall (Verse 3)
Like the holy scriptures of a shopping mall
And so it seemed to confess
It didn't say much
But it only confirmed that (Verse 4)
The center of the earth is the end of the world
And I could really care less
(Chorus)

I don't care if you don't
I don't care if you don't (Intro) x4
I don't care if you don't care
I don't care! (Riff 1)
Everyone is so full of shit
Burn and raised by hipocrits
Hearts recycled but never saved
From the cradle to the grave (Verse)
We are the kids of war and peace
From Anaheim to the Middle East
We are the stories and disciples
Of the Jesus of Suburbia
Land of make believe
And it don't believe in me (Chorus)
Land of make believe
And I don't believe
And I don't care!
I don't care!
I don't care! (Riff 2)
I don't care!
I don't care!

IV. Dearly Beloved
------------------------------------------------------------
The first time, a distorted electric guitar strums each
chord once. After that, an acoustic strums through them
with the electric palm muting.

Dearly beloved are you listening?
I cant remember a word that you were saying
Are we demented or are we disturbed?
The space that's in between insane and insecure
Oh therapy, can you please fill the void?
Am I retarded or am I just overjoyed
Nobody's perfect and I stand accused
For lack of a better word, and that's my best excuse

Lyrics:
To live and not to breathe
Is to die in tragedy (Verse 1)
To run, to run away
To find what you believe
And I
Leave behind (Chorus)
This hurricane of fucking lies
I lost my faith to this
This town that don't exist (Verse 2)
So I run, I run awy
The light of masochist
And I
Leave behind (Chorus)
This hurricane of fucking lies
And I
Walked this line (Chorus 2)
A million and one fucking times
But not this time
I don't feel any shame
I wont apologize
When there ain't nowhere you can go (Piano Interlude)
Running away from pain
When you've been victimized
Tales from another broken...
Home!
You're leavin'

You're leavin'
You're leavin HOME!

Lyrics:
Say! Hey!
Hear the sound of the falling rain
Coming down like an Armageddon flame (Hey!) (Verse 1)
The shame, the ones who die without a name
Hear the dogs howling out of key
To a hymn called "Faith and Misery" (Hey!) (Verse 2)
And bleed, the company lost the war today
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives (Chorus)
On holiday
There's a drum pounding out of time
Another protestor has crossed the line (Hey!) (Verse 3)
To find, the money's on the other side
Can I get another Amen? (Amen!)
There's a flag wrapped around the score of men (Hey!) (Verse 4)
A gag, A plastic bag on a monument
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
The representative from California has the floor:
"Zieg Heil!" to the president gasman
"Bombs away!" is your punishment
Pulverize the Eiffel Towers
Who criticize your government (Interlude)
"Bang Bang!" goes the broken glass man
Kill all the fags that don't agree
Triumph by fire setting fire
Is not a way that's meant for me
Just cause... just cause - because we're outlaws yeah!
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
This is our lives on holiday

Lyrics:
I walk a lonely road
The only one I that have ever known
Don't know were it goes
But its home to me and I walk alone
I walk this empty street
On the boulevard of broken dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone
I walk alone I walk alone
I walk alone I walk a-
My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I'll walk alone
I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line of the edge
And were I walk alone
Read between the lines of what's
Fucked up and every things all right
Check my vital signs to know I'm still alive
And I walk alone
I walk alone I walk alone
I walk alone I walk a-
My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I'll walk alone
I walk this empty street
On the boulevard of broken dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk a-
My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I'll walk alone

Lyrics:
Starry nights city lights
Coming down over me (Verse 1)
Skyscrapers and stargazers
In my head
Are we we are, Are we we are
The waiting unknown
This dirty town was burning down in my dreams (Pre-Chorus)
Lost and found city bound in my dreams
And screaming
Are we we are, Are we we are the waiting (Chorus)
And screaming
Are we we are, Are we we are the waiting
Forget me nots and second thoughts
Live in isolation
Heads or tails and fairytales (Verse 2)
In my mind
Are we we are, Are we we are
The waiting unknown
The rage and love, the story of my life (Pre-Chorus)
The Jesus of suburbia is a lie
And screaming
Are we we are, Are we we are the waiting
And screaming
Are we we are, Are we we are the waiting
(Outro)
Are we we are, Are we we are the waiting
And screaming
Are we we are, Are we we are the waiting
Are we we are, Are we we are the waiting

Lyrics:
St. Jimmy's comin' down across the alleyway
Up on the boulevard like a zipgun on parade
Light of a sillohette (Intro)
He's insubordinate
Coming at you on account of One Two
One Two Three Four!
My name is Jimmy and you better not wear it out
Suicide commando that your momma talked about (Verse 1)
King of the forty theives and I'm here to represent
The needle in the vein of the establishment
I'm the patron saint of the denial
With an angel face and a taste for suicidal (Chorus)
Cigarettes and ramen and a little bag of dope
I am the son of a bitch and Edgar Allen Poe
Raised in the city under a halo of lights (Verse 2)
The product of war and fear that we've been victimized
I'm the patron saint of the denial
With an angel face and a taste for suicidal (Chorus)
You talkin' to me?
I'll give you something to cry about. (Interlude)
ST. JIMMY
My name is St. Jimmy I'm a son of a gun
I am the one that's from the way outside now
A teenage assasin executing some fun
In the cult of the life of crime now
(Bridge)
I'd really hate to say it but I told you so
So shut your mouth before I shoot you down old boy
Welcome to the club and give me some blood
I'm the resident leader at the lost and found
It's comedy and tragedy
It's St. Jimmy (End)
And that's my name
...and don't wear it out!

Track 7: Give Me Novacaine
------------------------------------------------------------
All chords are played as barre chords. There are two
guitars strumming all acoustic parts, and they both
play the chords on different parts of the neck,
so it doesn't really matter if you play the E open
or at the 7th fret, or the F#m at the 2nd or 9th.
Intro: A F#m Bm E
A F#m
Take away the sensation inside
Bm E
Bitter sweet migraine in my head
A F#m
It's like a throbbing toothache of the mind
Bm E
I cant take this feeling anymore
D A
Drain the pressure from the swelling
D A
This sensation's overwhelming
D F#m
Give me a long kiss goodnight and everything will be alright
Bm E
Tell me I wont feel a thing
A F#m Bm E
So give me Novacaine
A F#m
Out of body and out of mind
Bm E
Kiss the demons out of my dreams
A F#m
I get the funny feeling, that's alright
Bm E
Jimmy says its better than here
I'll tell you why
D A
Drain the pressure from the swelling
D A
The sensations overwhelming
D F#m
Give me a kiss goodnight and everything will be alright
Bm E
tell me that i wont feel a thing

Oh Novacaine

Lyrics:
She's a rebel
She's a saint
She's the salt of the earth
And she's dangerous (Verse 1)
She's a rebel
Vigilante
Missing link on the brink
Of destruction
From Chicago
To Toronto
She's the one that they
Call old Whatsername (Verse 2)
She's the symbol
Of resistance
And she's holding on my
Heart like a hand grenade
Is she dreaming
What I'm thinking?
Is she the mother of all bombs
Gonna detonate (Verse 3)
Is she trouble
Like I'm trouble?
Make it a double
Twist of fate
Or a melody that
She sings the revolution
The dawning of our lives
She brings this liberation (Chorus)
That I just cant define
Well nothing comes to mind
(Bridge)
(Chorus)
(Verse 1) x2
She's a rebel
She's a rebel
She's a rebel
And she's dangerous (Bridge)
She's a rebel
She's a rebel
She's a rebel
And she's dangerous

Lyrics:
She's an Extraordinary girl
In an ordinary world (Verse)
And she cant seem to get away
He lacks the courage in his mind
Like a child left behind (Verse)
Like a pet left in the rain
She's all alone again
Wiping the tears from her eyes
Some days he feels like dying (Chorus)
She gets so sick of crying
She sees the mirror of herself
An image she wants to sell (Verse)
To anyone willing to buy
He steals the image in her kiss
From her heart's apocalypse (Verse)
From the one called Whatsername
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
She's all alone again
Wiping the tears from her eyes
Some days he feels like dying (End Chorus)
Some days it's not worth trying
Now that they both are finding
She gets so sick of crying
She's an extraordinary girl
An extraordinary girl
An extraordinary girl (End)
An extraordinary girl

Lyrics:
No body likes you
Everyone left you
They're all out without you
Having fun
Where have all the bastards gone?
The underbelly stacks up ten high
The dummy failed the crash test
Collecting unemployment checks
Like a flunkie only along for the ride
Where have all the riots gone?
As the city's motto gets pulverized
"What's in love is now in debt"
On your birth certificate
So strike the fucking match to light this fuse
The town bishop is an extortionist
And he don't even know that you exist.
Standin' still when it's do or die
You better run for your fucking life
It's not over 'till you're underground
It's not over before it's too late
This city's burning. "It's not my burden"
It's not over before it's too late
There is nothing left to analyze
Where will all the martyrs go when the virus cures itself?
And where we will all go when it's too late?
Well don't look back
You're not the Jesus of Suburbia
The St. Jimmy is a figment of
Your father's rage and your mother's love
Made me the idiot America
It's not over 'till you're underground
It's not over before it's too late
This city's burning. "It's not my burden"
It's not over before it's too late
She said, "I can't take this place
I'm leaving it behind."
Well she said, "I can't take this town
I'm leaving you tonight."

Lyrics:
My heart is beating from me
I am standing all alone
Please call me only
If you are coming come (Intro)
Waste another year flies by
Waste a night or two
You taught me how to live
In the streets of shame
Where you've lost your dreams in the rain (Verse 1)
There's no sign of hope
The stems and seeds of the last of the dope
There's a glow of light
The St. Jimmy is the spark in the night (Verse 2)
Bearing gifts and trust
The fixture in the city of lust
What the hell's your name
Whats your pleasure what is your pain? (Chorus)
Do you dream to much?
Do you think what you need is a crutch?
In the crowd of pain
St. Jimmy comes without any shame (Verse 3)
He says "We're fucked up," but we're not the same
And mom and dad are the ones you can blame
Jimmy died today
He blew out his brains into the bay (Chorus)
In the state of mind
It's my own private suicide

His life's on the line with anxiety now
And she had enough and he had plenty
Somebody get me out of here
Anybody get me out of here (Part 2)
Somebody get me out of here
Get me the fuck right out of here
So far away
I don't want to stay
Get me out of here right now
(Part 3)
I just wanna be free
Is there a responsibility
Get me out of here right now
Ahhh ohh
Ahhh ohh (Part 4)
Ahhh ohh
Ahhh ohh
This life like dream ain't for me (Outro)

Lyrics:
I got a rock and roll band
I got a rock and roll life (Verse 1)
I got a rock and roll girlfriend
And another ex-wife
I got a rock and roll house
I got a rock and roll car (Verse 2)
I play the shit out the drums
And I can play the guitar
I got a kid in new york
I got a kid in the bay (Verse 3)
I haven't drank or smoked nothin'
In over 22 days
So get off my case
Off of my case (Outro)
Off of my case

Chorus
Lyrics:
Here they come marching down the street
Like a desperation murmur of a heart beat (Verse 1)
Coming back from the edge of town
Underneath their feet
The time has come and it going nowhere
Nobody ever said that life was fair now (Verse 2)
Go-carts and guns are treasures they will bear
In the summer heat
The world is spinning
Around and around (Pre-Chorus)
Out of control again
From the 7-11 to the fear of breaking down
So send my love a Letterbomb
And visit me in hell (Chorus)
We're the ones going...

Lyrics:
Thought I ran onto you down on the street (Verse 1)
Then it turned out only to be a dream
I made a point to burn all of the photographs
She went away and then I took a different path
I remember the face (Chorus)
But I cant recall the name
Now I wonder how Whatsername has been
Seems that she disappeared with out a trace (Verse 2)
Did she ever marry old what's his face
I made a point to burn all of the photographs
She went away and then I took a different path
I remember the face (Chorus)
But I cant recall the name
Now I wonder how Whatsername has been
(Bridge)
Remember, whatever
It seems like forever ago
Remember, whatever
It seems like forever ago
(Interlude)
The regrets are useless
In my mind
She's in my head
The regrets are useless
In my mind
She's in my head
Go... go... go... (Riff 2 chords)
Go... go... go...
And in the darkest night
If my memory serves me right (End)
I'll never turn back time
Forgetting you, but not the time
