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

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.

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.

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; it could've been good times (couldn't get this line, fix it if you know it)
Em Dsus4 C9 G
Tatoos and memories and asking on trial
Em Dsus4 C9 G
For what it's worth it was worth all the while
Chorus
