Most of them were mailed to me, but some are from various tab archives, and hopefully I'll put up some I've done, too. I play bass, but Matt's the Mighty Bass Badass if you haven't noticed, so it's hard to figure out what he's playing sometimes. Plus I suck.

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. Transcribed by Robert W.
