This is "Prosthetic Head" By Green Day.
Very simple. Very good if you're just starting to dip your feet into Powerchords.
But it's a very good song to know. Fun to play. Cool rhythm.
Listen to the song if you want the rhytym, though. I'm no good at tab.
Okay, while I was doing this, someone else put out a five-star version
of this same song. ;-( But the timing for that one is terrible. This is much
eaiser to follow.
