Journey To The End of The East Bay
Rancid

Tabbed by Seth Halperin (DeadinMagazines)

This song is farely easy to play. Tim Armstrong (Guitar/Vocals) and 
Lars Frederiksen (Guitar/Vocals) usually like to use open chords when playing so they don't have to scale up and down the fretboard. Since your not Tim Armstrong or Lars Frederiksen and most likely won't be playing this song to an audience of guys with yellow mohawks and commando boots, I reccomment using power chords. Just in case you might be, I included the open chords. Great, fun song to play. Enjoy.

Repeat the verse: (1:19-1:40)

Repeat the chorus: (1:41-1:52)

From (1:52-2:14) repeat the Intro using the same exact chords and play for the
same measures as well. This is sort of a breakdown, followed by a third verse.

Repeat the verse (2:15-2:37)
"Matty came from far away, from New Orleans, into the East Bay"..

Repeat the chorus again (2:16-2:48)
"To the end, to the end.."

(I'm about 99% sure this is the correct tab for the solo)
