Formada en 1989, fueron uno de los impulsores de la segunda oleada del punk en los '90, cuando grabaron en 1994 Dookie, su tercer disco, con el que consiguieron un gran éxito, renovado diez años más tarde con American Idiot.
Green Day ha vendido millones de álbumes alrededor del mundo, convirtiéndose en una de las bandas de pop punk más influyentes. Está formada por Billie Joe Armstrong (voz y guitarra)

That's pretty much the whole song. The strumming patterns probably not exact, just listen to the CD and you'll get a feel for the right patterns. The bassline is pretty simplified because I'm not a true bass player. I know Mike Dirnt adds his stuff in between, but I just gave the basic idea.
