'NO ONE KNOWS' By Green Day
(Taken from the Kerplunk! album)
Transcribed by Will James (20 Sep 1996)
I think this song has a really great bass line and i'm surprised no one has
got round
to transcribing it.. I did this on my electric guitar since i didnt have a
bass at hand
so you may have to fiddle with it! but i hope its correct (more or less)
Notes: Tune down 1/2 step

VERSE 1
G D (FILL 1)
Why should my fun have to end?
A
For me its only the beginning
G D (FILL 1)
I see my friends begin to age
A
A Short countdown to what end
CHORUS
GDA
Call me irresponsible
GDA
Call me habitual
GD
But when you think of me
GD
Do you fill your head with schemes
GD
Better think again
A
Cause no one knows
VERSE 2
I don't want to cause no harm
But sometimes my actions hurt
Is there something i should find
To make plans forever
CHORUS
