Here it is, a tab for the entire abum all the way through. This tab is a mixture of how it is played on the album, how I play it and how it is played live. Jason White did not record on the album, however he does play lead guitar live, and that is why his guitar is included here. This tab also shows the guitar parts (i.e. Lead) which he plays live, the the parts which Billie plays live (i.e. Rhythm) I have included some bass, but only where it is prominent (i.e. Holiday and Jesus of Suburbia). Notes: Boulevard of Broke Dreams: 'Additional Guitar 1' is not played live, neither is the electric fill , they are pre- recorded. Jason has a capo on fret one for this song, however, that would require an extra instrument on here, so his part is tabbed so that you can play it without the capo, but it will still sound right. Homecoming: During the end of the 'We're Coming Home Again' part, the pick scrapes and slides you hear are pretty random, and there isn't a set patern. Whatsername: On this track, both guitars are tuned in drop D tuning. Here they are tabbed in standard tuning here to save having to add extra instruments. Vocals: Are mainly good, but sometimes a bit dodgy, but you get the right idea. Sometimes the background vocals clash with the main vocals, but it still sounds cool. Have fun :)
