From: Stephen Dranger 
Subject: "Haushinka" tab

Haushinka by Green Day
Album: Nimrod

Intro rhythm

G |-5-7-|
D |-5-7-|
A |-3-5-|
E |-----|

Play lead:

e |-2----3----5----3----|
B |---3----3----3----3--|
G |---------------------|

Haushinka is a girl with a peculiar name
I met her on the eve of my birthday
Did she know, did she know
Before she went away?
Does she know, does she know

G |-5-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-7-|
D |-5-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-7-|
A |-3-3-3-3-3-5-5-5-5-5-|
E |---------------------|
   |---P.M.--|
That it's too damn late

G |-7-7-7-7-7-7-5-5-5-5-5--------------------------|
D |-7-7-7-7-7-7-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5--3-3-3-3-3-5-5-|
A |-5-5-5-5-5-5-3-3-3-3-3-5-5-5-5-5--3-3-3-3-3-5-5-|
E |-----------------------3-3-3-3-3--1-1-1-1-1-3-3-|

  This girl has gone far away        Now she's gone
                                     |-Repeat 4th time|

Repeat verse:

All I have now is a memory to date
A cheap hat and cigarrettes and a peculiar name
I didn't know I didn't know
Before she went away
I know now, I know now
and it's too damn late

CHORUS

Bridge:

G |---------------------------------|
D |-9-9-9-9-7-7-7-7-4/5-5-5-4/5-5-5-|
A |-9-9-9-9-7-7-7-7-4/5-5-5-4/5-5-5-|
E |-7-7-7-7-5-5-5-5-2/3-3-3-2/3-3-3-|

Will she ever find her way?
I'm too damn young to be too late
Yet again I'm kicking myself
and I'll be here in battle scars

P.M. G5 chord (355xxx)
Waiting for you...

Then do the Kinks "Do It Again"/Green Day "Walking Contradiction" riff:

G |----------7--7-7-7-----------|
D |-7--7-7-7-7--7-7-7-5--5--7-7-|
A |-7--7-7-7-5--5-5-5-5--5--7-7-|
E |-5--5-5-5----------3--3--5-5-|

Then I'm not sure but I think this is it:

Play D5 and C5 in back ground (x577xx and x355xx respectively)

And as a lead:

G |-5-7-8--5-7-8--4-5-7--4-5-7--5-7-8--5-7-8-7-7-7-7-7-|
D |-5-5-5--5-5-5--4-4-4--4-4-4--5-5-5--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|
