Paper Lanterns
GREEN DAY   (1039 / Smoothed Out Slappy Hours)

This post is for all you true Green Day fans who have heard more than Basket Case, When I
Come Around, and Longview.  This is not for the people who say, "What?!  Green Day has more
than one album???"  In any case, here goes:

(INTRO:  A G—G D—D A—A   all barre chords)

	(verse 1)
A	         G
Now I rest my head from
	  D		A
Such an endless dreary time.
A                          G
A time of hope and happiness
        D                    A
That had you on my mind.
A                                   G
Those days are gone and now it seems
     D                   A
As if I'll get some rest.
A              	       G
But now and then I'll see you again
       D                          A
And put my heart to the test.


	(chorus)
D                           E                      A—A D—A
So when are all my problems going to end?
D                        E
I'm understanding now that we are
A      D
Only friends.
          G                    D
To this day I'm asking why
(N.C.)                        A G—G D—D A—A
I still think about you.

	(verse 2)
As the days go on I wonder
will this ever end?
I find it hard to keep control
When you with your boyfriend.
I do not mind if all I an is
Just a friend to you.
But all I want to know right now
Is if you think about me too.

	(Chorus)
