The music for the song was written by Green Day, with lyrics by lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong. The song itself peaked on the American Billboard charts at number two.

Noel Gallagher of Oasis criticized Green Day in late 2006, saying, “They should have the decency to wait until I am dead [before stealing my songs]. I, at least, pay the people I steal from that courtesy”, referencing the fact that “Boulevard of Broken Dreams” uses the same chord progression as Oasis’ hit single “Wonderwall”.

A very easy song for even a beginner to learn and my favorite Green Day tune.
