Green Day Carpe Diem Lyrics

Tabbed February 6, 2013
*CAPO 1
C pm.......... C
Breaking in a sweat
C pm.......... C
Like a bomb threat
C pm.................. C G
Here's your silhouette fading out
C pm............. C
Nothing left to lose
C pm.......... C
Detonate the fuse
C pm.................. C G
Another break in this blow out
C pm........... C
Ain't it beautiful?
C pm..... C
So unusual?
C pm.................... C G
Life's a guess and it's running out
C pm......... C
Live in a cliche
C pm............ C
Gonna seize the day
C pm............... C G C G
Bottle rockets to celebrate.... celebrate... celebrate
Carpe diem, a battle cry
Are we all too young to die?
Ask for reason and no reply
Are we all too young to die?
Making a living, making a killing
What's worth forgiving? A lie?
C pm........... C
A blink of an eye
C pm............ C
Barely scraping by
C pm............C G
Dominated by passer-bys
C pm............ C
Feeling out of luck
C pm................. C
When the traffic's stuck
C pm................... C G
And you're feeling so left behind
C pm............ C
Getting off a binge
C pm.......... C
Get a second wind
C pm................ C G
Another promise to make a change
C pm........... C
Got a broken wing
C pm............ C
Hear the angel sing
C pm............... C G
When the single is out of range
Ain't it strange? Ain't it strange?
Carpe diem, a battle cry
Are we all too young to die?
Ask for reason and no reply
Are we all too young to die?
Making a living, making a killing
What's worth forgiving? A lie?
SOLO (Play intro/chorus)
Making a living, making a killing
What's worth forgiving? A lie?
Carpe diem, a battle cry
Are we all too young to die?
Ask for reason and no reply
Are we all too young to die?
*For the verses just kinda do something like this
|---2..(palm mute)..0-2--|
Like a little jump or something. (Just lift your fingers of 3 and 2 quickly) But don't
let the C at the end ring. Then when you get to the last part of each verse you can let
the C ring and then play the G.
pm = palm mute
Enjoy! :)
