Song: "Dilemma" Artist: Green Day Album: 'Saviors' Released: December 7, 2023 What an incredible song. Tried to make this as accurate as possible but there's likely some mistakes, so suggest a correction or leave a comment if you find something wrong. I hope this tab helps you. Last edited to align the intro with how Billie Joe played it live at Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve 2024. [Intro] "Welcome to my problems..." Guitar 1 (Rhythm): [0:00-0:17]
