  Verse: (play each line twice, then go to chorus)

        G                              C9             Dsus4
        |-------3--------------3--------------3------------3------|  /|
        |----------3-------------3--------------3------------3----| / |

        |---0--------------0--------------2-----------0-----------|   |
        |------------------------------3--------------------------|   |
        |-3--------------3----------------------------------------| __|__

        Then it repeats, so it almost sounds like it goes C9, Dsus4, Gmodal. 
        So, after the end of the Dsus4 bit, go straight to the G bass note.

         Em            Dsus4           C9                G            __
        |------3------------3-------------3------------3----------|  /  \
        |--------3------------3-------------3------------3--------| |    |

        |---2----------0---------------2------------0-------------|    /
        |----------------------------3----------------------------|   /
        |-0---------------------------------------3---------------|  /____ 

        Okay, tab 1 at the top is played through twice, then
        play tab 2 twice.  That's the verse.  Then, the next bit
        is played once.  That's the chorus.  Not terribly complex,
        but, hey this IS Green Day, after all.

         Em            G            Em              G                ___
        |------3------------3------------3-----------3------------| /   \
        |--------3------------3------------3-----------3----------| |   | 
        |----------0------------0------------0-----------0--------|   __/ 
        |---2------------0------------2-----------0---------------|     \
        |---------------------------------------------------------| |   |
        |-0------------3------------0-----------3-----------------| \___/
        
         Em             Dsus4      ___
        |------3---------3------| /   \  
        |--------3---------3----| |   | 
        |----------0---------2--|   __/
        |---2----------0--------|     \
        |-----------------------| |   |
        |-0---------------------| \___/

        Okay, now, it's important that you go straight back into the
        opening G of the verse, because the Dsus4 sort of leaves you
        hanging there.  Then play the first half of the verse once
        through, then start it all over again.
        
     Lyrics

     Intro: G C9 Dsus4 G (start singing) (the fingerpicking here is 
     same as verse (see above))

     Verse 1:

     G       C9              Dsus4             G
     Another turning point a fork stuck in the road 
     G              C9           Dsus4                G   
     Time grabs you by the wrist directs you where to go
     Em          Dsus4                  C9        G
     So make the best of these days and don't ask why
     Em         Dsus4          C9                G
     It's not a question but a lesson learned in time

     Chorus
     Em                  G        Em              G
     It's something unpredictable in the end it's right
     Em                  Dsus4        G (where verse riff cuts back in)
     I hope you have the time of your life.  (Start struming G  C  Dsus4)

     Verse 2:
     G           C9              Dsus4               G
     So take the photographs and stillframes in your mind
     G            C9        Dsus4              G
     Hang it on a shelf; in good health and good time (couldn't get this line, fix it if you know it)

     Em         Dsus4        C9        G
     Tatoos and memories and dead skin on trial
     Em            Dsus4        C9            G
     For what it's worth it was worth all the while
