Band: Green Day
Album: American Idiot
Song: Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Tabber: Aaron E.(aarguitar)
                               
/ - slide
* - very fast picking (each * stands for 2 plucks)
~ - vibrato

There might be parts of the song (example the verse) which are played with chords, 
as someone has pointed out to me, (you can look at the chords in the corrections page)
but I have just tabbed the power chords for it.
For the intro you should play around until you figure out the right tremolo effect. 
It also sounds OK to just palm mute it.

Intro - is repeated in the background through most the song

Well, that’s about it.  I hope its simple to read. Also, during the last chorus 
the 2nd guitar comes in on the 3rd repeat and plays his solo on top.
