TAB Date: October 29, 1997. I've been working and updating this one for quite some time now, and I'm pretty sure it's perfect, although I may STILL have some parts wrong. If this is true, please lemme know and send me the correct version. Someone pointed out to me: "why does the bass line goes like this (fig. 1) instead of just playing the root of the guitar during the solo like every bassist should?

Because Mike Dirnt is more than just an average bassist. The 2-2 instead of 7-7 I put there for ease of playing. Plus on the video it looks like that's what they do anyways. If you listen closely (it helps if you have 3D sound on your soundcard/home stereo for this) you can hear him do that neato 8th note run. I think it's really cool. Kinda mysterious, hmm?
