Subject: CRD green day, when i come around
neat chords, neat melody. chords are played in barre style (except
for the a chord in the chorus).
when i come around, green day
G D E C
i heard you crying loud
all the way across town
etc.
chorus
A C
no time to search the world around
'cause you know where i'll be found
when i come around
i don't know the solo, but it kinda sounds like the intro to 'today'
by smashing pumpkins.
