Exhausted
by the Foo Fighters

Transcription by Anthony Tong (ad201@torfree.net).

Dropped-D tuning (D-A-D-G-B-E). Crank up the FUZZ!

Chords used:
Asus2 add? - x 0 2 2 0 1
E/B add? - x 2 x 0 0 1
C - x 3 2 0 1 0
Am - x 0 2 2 1 0
Bb5 - x 1 3 3 x x
G - 5 5 5 x x x


Verse/Intro
-----------
Asus2add?, E/B add?, C, Am, C, Am

Despite of the weird chord (names) it's pretty easy to play.
It's tough to tab because of the picking pattern. Listen to the
song to figure it out.


Pre-Chorus
----------
Bb5 Am G


Chorus/Instrumental Section
---------------------------

G ---------------------------------|-5-5-5---
D --3--5--7--5--0-3-0-3-0-3-5--7~--|-5-5-5---
A --3--5--7--5--0-3-0-3-0-3-5--7~--|-------- From what I can tell the bass doubles the guitar.

Sorry for being sorta cryptic on how the song is pieced together, but
there should be enough so that you can play along with the song.
And pardon for the Internet advertising, but get the Foo Fighter's
album--it's GREAT!

I'm pretty sure of this one (except for chord names) ;-), but don't
hesistate to e-mail me with comments, questions, whatever at:

Alrighty then...

Exhausted, by Foo Fighters...wow this is my first transcription, but I
think I got it right. I looked for this song after watching Foo Fighters'
I'm ok, Eur ok concert on MTV and I noticed that Dave Grohl plays the
opening chord with a simple open Dm chord...but when I tried to figure the
song out by ear, I couldn't, so I went to ***OLGA***. Anyway, I played the
tab that it came with and you know, it didn't sound quite right, so here's
my interpretation of the intro/verse...

It's still in the drop D tuning...

Intro/Verse:

e:---------1------------|----------1------------|
B:---------3----3-----3-|----------3----3-----3-|
G:---------2-------2----|----------2-------2----|
D:-0----0---------------|-0----0----------------|
A:-0----0---------------|-2----2----------------|
D:-0----0---------------|-x----x----------------|
I'm not around that much. I'm

e:----------0------------|-----------0------------|
B:----------1----1-----1-|-----------1----1-----1-|
G:----------2-------2----|-2----2----2-------2----|
D:-x----x----------------|-2----2-----------------|
A:-3----3----------------|-0----0-----------------|
D:-3----3----------------|-x----x-----------------|
near exhausted

e:----------0------------|-----------0------------|
B:----------1----1-----1-|-----------1----1-----1-|
G:----------2-------2----|-2----2----2-------2----|
D:-x----x----------------|-2----2-----------------|
A:-3----3----------------|-0----0-----------------|
D:-3----3----------------|-x----x-----------------|
and lost.

...everything else seemed fine, if played right, you should be able to play
this with minimal hand movement. The way I play the intro Dm chord is also
a prep for the second chord...
