"insomniac"

BY GREEN DAY

This took me forever to get this on the computer. Other than that, I tabbed

the song by ear in

3omin. I was going to post on the 10th, but l just didn't have the time to

type it all out. The timing

and lyrics are probably off, because l tabbed it while l was still so fresh

to the songs, but the

powerchords are all right.
