Green day- Basket case

this song is really easy and sounds wicked. Most of the tabs were in 1/2 note down tuning, so i decided to tab it with regular tuning; im too lazy. haha


E-mail me if u have any questions   korean-minsoo@hotmail.com 
I'm sure this tab is 99% correct cuz i play this with my band and it sounds perfectly perfect. Please rate/correct this tab. 
              
S.w              
              The song is actually 1/2 note tuned down, so if you're playing like that, play this tab 1 fret up. when playing the beginning of solo, if you're playing 1/2 note down tuned, play 
            eb----- 
            Bb-----
            Gb-----
            Db-2---
            Ab-2---
            Eb-0---

 *If you want to tune half note down, then just play first fret on all strings and tune them regularly.
