Knowledge
From: trebor@alpha2.csd.uwm.edu (Robert W Kubiak II)
Since the tab for Green Day's cover of Knowledge was recently posted,
here is the original by Operation Ivy. Mostly power chords, but a really
great riff too. The D,C,G progression goes throughout the whole song
(verse and refrain) if you want all the lyrics, they are in the CD.
Tune down one whole step for this song D,G,C,F,A,D. Or to play in
standard tuning, play C,Bb,F and play the riff off of 3rd position.

Plea For Peace(bass)
tabbed by Sean McCullough (bankshot@mailhost.nmt.edu)
I think the guitar part is just power chords with these roots...
Verse:
G -------------------------
D -------------------------
A ------2----------2-3-3-3- The song starts off with this riff
E -3-3-3--3-2-1-1-1--------
It wasn't my decision...
G ------------553-------------- Sometimes Matt leaves out the 05 at
D ---------------------------5- the end.
A ---------------------------0- This normally follows the verse, but
E -3-32-21-1-1----3-32-21-1-1-- it appears at other points too
Certain jocks sought control...
Chorus:
G ----------------------------------
D ----------------------------------
A ---------3333333333333333--------- Matt does some things with transition
E -11111111----------------11111111- notes but it's really hard to hear
Pices of a machine called education...

CHORUS:

sound system gonna bring me back up yeah,
D A E G
one thing that i can depend on
VERSES:
D A
try to describe to the limit of my ability
E G
it's there for a second then it's given up what it used to be
(with same progression)
contained in music somehow more then just sound
this inspiration coming and twisting things around
cause you always know that it's gonna have to go
you always know that you'll be back in the cold
point of departure sublimated in a song
it's always comin to give me hope for just a second
then it's gone, but
CHORUS
static pulse inside of music bringing us escape
it's always temporary changing nothing in it's wake
just a second where we're leavin all this shit behind
just a second but it's leavin just this much in mind
to resist despair, that second makes you see...
to resist despair, cause you can't change everything
to resist despair in this world is
what it is what it is to be free
CHORUS
Bridge:
D A A
sound system
E A E
wake up turn my box on bust the shade let the sun in
(same chords)
box in my hand, music by my side
skankin to the rhythm of the music by my side

by straying slightly from the root.
