An unreleased recording by Green Day. There's been various live recordings of it done in various tunings. The
Sweet Children demo is in standard, the KALX version is in D and the one from 2/24/1989 is in Eb, so tune to
whichever version you want to play along with. Make sure to use all open chords and play arpeggios in the
intro and verses (as well as the outro), and make sure to leave the high E string open for all chords
during those parts. Enjoy!

Hold you again is one thing that I must
