Title: The Grouch
Artist: Green Day
Album: Nimrod


Well, what can I say? The song is piss-easy to play, but I thought I'd put the tab in instead of just chords. Don't ask me why, I just like to do things the hard way.

The Words
Verse 1: 
I was a young boy that had big plans, 
Now I'm just another shitty old man. 
I don't have fun and I hate everything, 
The world owes me so fuck you. 


Verse 2:
Glory days don't mean shit to me, 
I drank a six-pack of apathy. 
Life's a bitch and so am I, 
The world owes me so fuck you. 


Chorus:
Wasted youth and a fistful of ideals, 
I had a young and optimistic point of view. 
Wasted youth and a fistful of ideals, 
I had a young and optimistic point of view. 


Verse 3:
I've decomposed yet my guts getting fat, 
Oh my god I'm turning out like my dad. 
I'm always rude, I got a bad attitude, 
The world owes me so fuck you. 


Verse 4:
The wife's a nag, and the kid's fucking up, 
I don't have sex 'cause I can't get it up. 
I'm just a grouch, sitting on the couch, 
The world owes me so fuck you. 


Chorus -> Solo -> Verse 1 -> Verse 2 -> The world owes me so fuck you. The world owes me so fuck you. 


That is all.
