To play this song, first detune your low E string to a low D,

then capo on the first fret (or don't capo and play it a half

step lower than on the album, or add 1 to each fret number and

play it without the capo in the same key = Eb)



intro/theme riff



---10----12----10----14p10------  play this cutesy little riff

------10----10----10-------10---  4x solo, then 8x with band

--------------------------------  behind playing these dist.

--------------------------------  power chords:

--------------------------------

--------------------------------



play these chords 4 times, using this 3rd chord the 3rd time

---------------------------------------   --------------

---------------------------------------   --------------

---------------------------------------   --------------

--0-0-0-0/-7-7-7-7\-5-5-5-5--5-5-5-5---   --0/-7/-9\-5--

--0-0-0-0/-7-7-7-7\-5-5-5-5--5-5-5-5---   --0/-7/-9\-5--

--0-0-0-0/-7-7-7-7\-5-5-5-5--5-5-5-5---   --0/-7/-9\-5--



(you get the idea-

The lead part is as follows:

repeat six times then do:                vib.

---------------------   --------------------7-------

------7-----7h8p7----   ------7-------7ph8-----7----

--7-7---7-7-------7--   --7-7---7-7-7------------7--

---------------------   ----------------------------

---------------------   ----------------------------

---------------------   ----------------------------





Then play this on cleanish guitar, 3x, sliding up to the 9th fret

chord on the fourth time:

                                                    4th time

------2-2-2------5-5-5--------3-----------3-------  -2-5-7-

------3-3-3------5-5-5--------3-----------3-------  -3-5-7-

------2-2-2------6-6-6--------4-----4-----4-------  -2-6-8-

--0-0---0-0/-7-7---7-7\-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5\--  -0-7-9-

--0-0---0-0/-7-7---7-7\-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5\--  -0-7-9-

--0-0---0-0/-7-7---7-7\-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5\--  -0-7-9-



kick the distortion back on and play this progression under "I

want to turn you on.. etc" a total of 3 times, then play the next

progression once going back into the cleanish chords:

------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------

--2-2-2-2/-5-5-5-5/-9--9-9-9--9-9-9--9-9--9-9\--

--2-2-2-2/-5-5-5-5/-9--9-9-9--9-9-9--9-9--9-9\--

--2-2-2-2/-5-5-5-5/-9--9-9-9--9-9-9--9-9--9-9\--



----------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------

--2-2-2-2-2/-5-5-5-5-5\-4-4-4-4-4/-11--11-11-11-11-11-11--

--2-2-2-2-2/-5-5-5-5-5\-4-4-4-4-4/-11--11-11-11-11-11-11--

--2-2-2-2-2/-5-5-5-5-5\-4-4-4-4-4/-11--11-11-11-11-11-11--



The lead part over the above chords is really simple, play it on

the first and third times, over the C (9th fret) chord:

 slow bend w/vib

----------------

------5b7-------

----------------

----------------

----------------

----------------



Now play the whole cleanish-chord section as above, with this

lead part above it (clean guitar-:



-----------------------------------------|--------------------

-----------------------------------------|--------------------

---------------------11-12---11h12p11----|--------------------

---12----14----12---------------------12-|-12----14----12-----

------12----12----12---------------------|----12----12----12--

-----------------------------------------|--------------------



-----------------------------------------|--------------------

--------------------10-------------------|--------------------

---11-12-------0----------11h12p11-------|--------------------

---------12------------12----------12p11-|-12----14----12-----

------------12---12----------------------|----12----12----12--

-----------------------------------------|--------------------



----------------------------------|-----------------------------

--------------------10------------|-----------------------------

--11-12-------11---------12p11----|-----------------------------

--------12------------------------|-12----14----12----16p12-----

-----------12----12------------12-|----12----12----12-------12--

----------------------------------|-----------------------------

                   dist.  vib

--------------------------------

-----------------------12-------

-------------------/11----11-\--

--------------------------------

---12/14-14-14-14---------------

--------------------------------





Then go into this progression and play it 3x and add on the

different chords afterwards:



--------------------------------------

--------------------------------------

--------------------------------------

--2-2-2-2/-5-5-5-5\-0-0-0-0/-7-7-7-7\-

--2-2-2-2/-5-5-5-5\-0-0-0-0/-7-7-7-7\-

--2-2-2-2/-5-5-5-5\-0-0-0-0/-7-7-7-7\-



----------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------

--2-2-2-2/-5-5-5-5\-4-4-4-4/-11--11-11-11-11-11-11--

--2-2-2-2/-5-5-5-5\-4-4-4-4/-11--11-11-11-11-11-11--

--2-2-2-2/-5-5-5-5\-4-4-4-4/-11--11-11-11-11-11-11--





Now, for the part under "today is, today is...", play this

progression twice, then the two that follow it:



play this twice

---------------------------------------

---------------------------------------

---------------------------------------

--0-0-0-0/-7-7-7-7\-0-0-0-0/-5-5-5-5\--

--0-0-0-0/-7-7-7-7\-0-0-0-0/-5-5-5-5\--

--0-0-0-0/-7-7-7-7\-0-0-0-0/-5-5-5-5\--



---------------------------------------

---------------------------------------

---------------------------------------

--0-0-0-0/-7-7-7-7/-9-9-9-9\-5-5-5-5\--

--0-0-0-0/-7-7-7-7/-9-9-9-9\-5-5-5-5\--

--0-0-0-0/-7-7-7-7/-9-9-9-9\-5-5-5-5\--



---------------------------------------------------------

---------------------------------------------------------

---------------------------------------------------------

--0-0-0-0/-7-7-7-7/-9-9-9-9--9-9-9-9--9-9-9-9--9-9-9-9\--

--0-0-0-0/-7-7-7-7/-9-9-9-9--9-9-9-9--9-9-9-9--9-9-9-9\--

--0-0-0-0/-7-7-7-7/-9-9-9-9--9-9-9-9--9-9-9-9--9-9-9-9\--



The lead part for this is very similar to the full-band lead

before the first verse.



Play this progression under "I want to turn you on..." just as

before, repeat the first line 3x and then play the last one into

the outro.

------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------

--2-2-2-2/-5-5-5-5/-9--9-9-9--9-9-9--9-9--9-9\--

--2-2-2-2/-5-5-5-5/-9--9-9-9--9-9-9--9-9--9-9\--

--2-2-2-2/-5-5-5-5/-9--9-9-9--9-9-9--9-9--9-9\--



----------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------

--2-2-2-2-2/-5-5-5-5-5\-4-4-4-4-4/-11--11-11-11-11-11-11--

--2-2-2-2-2/-5-5-5-5-5\-4-4-4-4-4/-11--11-11-11-11-11-11--

--2-2-2-2-2/-5-5-5-5-5\-4-4-4-4-4/-11--11-11-11-11-11-11--



Now repeat this last little phrase 4x through to the end.



---------------------------------------

---------------------------------------

---------------------------------------

--0-0-0-0/-7-7-7-7/-9-9-9-9\-5-5-5-5\--

--0-0-0-0/-7-7-7-7/-9-9-9-9\-5-5-5-5\--

--0-0-0-0/-7-7-7-7/-9-9-9-9\-5-5-5-5\--



The lead parts in the outro are the clean cutesy riff, the

hammer-on 7th fret riff, and this:

                                                vib sustain

------------------------------------------14p10-------------

-------------------------------------10---------10----------

--11---------11h12p11----11----11h12------------------------

-----14-12------------12----12------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------------



Then end with this chord:

   trem bend down

Lyrics to Today:



Today is the greatest day I've ever known

Can't live for tomorrow, tomorrow's much too long

I'll burn my eyes out, before I get out



I wanted more

Than I could ever grant

Bored by the chore

Of saving face



Today is the greatest day I've ever known

Can't wait for tomorrow, I might not have that long

I'll tear my heart out, before I get out



Pink ribbon scars that never forget

I've tried so hard to cleanse these regrets

My angel wings were bruised and restrained

My belly stings



Today is, today is,

Today is the greatest

Day...



I want to turn you on, I want to turn you on,

I want to turn you on, I want to turn you



Today is the greatest

Today is the greatest.... day

Today is the greatest.... day

I have ever really known
