Chord/Tab song: Macy's Day Parade

Macy's Day Parade by Green Day

This is probably the most complete tab you'll find anywhere.
Like a lot of musicians, I'm really lazy, so I just tabbed out rhythm slashes.
Change rhythm where you see "Use Rhythm ..." whatever.
I think it's pretty straight forward, but that may be just me...
Have fun!

VERSE 1
[B] Today's a Macy's Day Parade
The [G#m]night of the living dead is on its way
[E5] With the credit report[F#5] for duty [B]call

(Drums Enter)
[B] It's a lifetime guarantee
[G#m]Stuffed in a coffin 10% more free
[E5] Red light spec[F#5]ial at the mauso[B]leum

PRECHORUS
[E5] Give me something that I need
[F#5] Satisfaction guaranteed to [E5]you
What's the consolation prize?
[F#5] Economy sized dreams of [B]hope

VERSE 2
[B] When I was a kid I thought
I [G#m]wanted all the things that I haven't got
[E5] Oh, but I lea[F#5]rned the hardest [B]way

[B] Then I realized what it took
To [G#m]tell the difference between thieves and crooks
[E5] When all al[F#5]ong it was me and [B]you
