Band: NOFX
Song: Green Corn
Album: Ribbed
This is a great NOFX song. It has many parts and can get a bit confusing.
This is also my first tab. I know it is 100% correct or very close.
I have never seen this song (complete and correct) on any tab site so far,
so if you see one on there, then it's mine and someone stole it.
Another thing, I rule.
The guitars switch off leads.
Guitar A: Eric Melvin
Guitar B: Steve Kidweiler
b: bend (^ up bend)
p: pull-off
h: hammer-on
Note: This is not the strumming pattern of the song! (on most parts)
This is just how many strums are put in the parts
if you just strummed everything repeativly. They are strumming in 3's (down up down).
You figure it out. Even if you don't play the pattern they play it still sounds good.
I have also put in the times of where all of the parts start.
What you see below is the whole song order. I put every part, even repeaters.
