Hi, this is the correct way to play Green Day's You Lied! :)
I saw the other version of the song here on UG, and then played it along with the track,
it didn't sound right... and it wasn't so hard to figure out the right way to play :P
Here it is!
 
x = finger mute
 
/ = slide
 
h = hammer on
 
~ = let ring

Gb                                    Em/F              G/Gb
Compulsive habits that never seem to die

Your breath has taken up all the air

Eb                             Db
When the story is streched and so far-fetched
 
Eb                     Db
That you're lacking an excuse
 
You Lied...

Gb
But now she's dead
 
Gb                      Em/F                 G/Gb
and she left you with a problem
 
Gb                                       G/Gb
Pinocchio has pierced your tongue
 
Gb                               Em/F
Your nose is growin into the 3rd dimension
 
Eb               Db
Well reality is due
 
Eb                          Db
What you say just can't be true
 
Eb                                  Db
When the story is stretched and so far-fetched
 
Eb                      Db
That you're lacking an excuse
 
You Lied...
