Tom: Bb
I have seen tabs for this song tuned down a half step, but
nobody wants to take time to do that, so here is the song
in standard tuning. It is not perfect but hopefully it will
give you a start in learning how to play this wonderful
Weezer song
Enjoy!

this chord will have to be played this way:
e----------
b-----------
g--8-------
d--8------
a--6-------
E---------
this is the only difference in sound from the half-step
down version. I just moved it up an octave from where it
is when weezer actually plays it.
