Hi! Here is a fun Green Day song from Dookie. Remember to

tune your guitar to Eb, and play FAST!! Best..Mark...

Opening.. E E D A...Play 4 times...

E D E

Dear Mother, Can you hear me whining?

E D G B

It's been 3 whole weeks since I have left your home

E D E

This sudden fear has left me trembling

E D G B

'Cause now it seems that I am out here on my own

G B

And I'm feeling all alone...

REFRAIN:

E G A C

Pay attention to the cracked streets, and broken homes

E G B

Some call it slums, some call it nice...

E G A

I want to take you through a wasteland I like to call my

C E B

home...Welcome to Paradise (Do the EE D A thingy twice)

2nd Verse...

E D E

A gunshot rings out at the station

E D G B

Another urchin snaps, and left dead on his own

E D E

It makes me wonder why I'm still here

E D G B

For some strange reason it's now feeling like my home

G B

And I'm never gonna go...

REPEAT REFRAIN...PLAY E....There is a bridge here w/a bass

solo..I don't have time to do it now!(I have to give you

something to do eh?)

E D E

Dear Mother, Can you hear me laughing?

E D G B

It's been six whole months since I have left your home

E D E

It makes me wonder why I'm still here

E D G B

For some strange reason it's now feeling like my home

G B

And I'm never gonna go...

REPEAT REFRAIN: and end after the 4th EE D A thingy...
