Green Day - Carpe Diem

the only recording of this song is from a live show , so no one ( other than the band ) is
100% sure about the lyrics . you may have to play down or up half a step based on how
your guitar is tuned . there’s a couple parts where i’m leaving it up to the individual
to improvise , like on the solo and that little quiet spot near the end .

D G A D
D A G D

A D
breaking in a sweat
A D
like a bomb threat
A D A# A
use your silhouette , faded out

A D
nothing left to lose
A D
detonate the fuse
A D A# A
another break and you fall out

A D
getting off a binge
A D
get a second wind
A D A# A
another promise , just make a change

A D
got a broken wing
A D
hear the angels sing
A D A# A
with a signal that’s out of range
A# A A# A
make a change , make a change

D G A D
carpe diem , a battle cry
D A G D
aren’t we all too young to die
D G A D
ask for reason , and no reply
D A A D
aren’t we all too young to die

G D
making a living
G D
making a killing
G D
what’s worth forgiving
A
a life

A D
and the other night
A D
barely scraping by
A D A# A
dominated by passer – by’s

( same chords as above )
feeling out of luck
when the traffic’s stuck
and you’re feeling so left behind

( same chords )
getting off a binge
get a second wind
another promise , just make a change

( same chords )
got a broken wing
hear the angels sing
with a signal that’s out of range

A# A A# A
any change any change

D G A D
carpe diem , a battle cry
D A G D
aren’t we all too young to die
D G A D
ask for reason , and no reply
D A G D
aren’t we all too young to die

G D
making a living
G D
making a killing
G D
what’s worth forgiving
A
a life

( same chords as above , but palm muted )
making a living
making a killing
what’s worth forgiving
a life/Alive

( same chords as other chorus )
carpe diem , a battle cry
are/Aren’t we all too young to die
ask for reason , and no reply
aren’t we all too young to die

carpe diem , a battle cry
are/Aren’t we all too young to die
ask for reason , and no reply
are/Aren’t we all too young to die

if this isn’t perfect , it’s close enough for now . stay groovy and keep on rockin’ .
