Song: "Look Ma, No Brains!" Artist: Green Day Live Debut: October 22, 2023 This one is slightly higher quality but it's missing the first few seconds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZFc6RkTl2Y Really great new song. This tab might have some mistakes, so if you find any, suggest an edit to this tab or let me know what's wrong. [Verse 1] "Don't know much about history..."
