Very Nice... I Was Waiting For Best Of You - Foo Fighters To Come To Mxtabs.net... For A While Now Cause I Was To Lazy To Tab One... Love It. Along With The SAME REPLICA From Ultimate-guitar.com =P But Nice.
ACDCGuitarist09ACDCGuitarist09Unknown Date
Thank you for making this tab
guitarandbassfruitguitarandbassfruitUnknown Date
he didnt make this ...but i have been waiting for this ....so thanks
FrddyBrnRgrJhnFrddyBrnRgrJhnUnknown Date
Maybe I'm wrong, but the second chord of the chorus sounds wrong (the Eb/E one). I tried experimenting around and this sounds better:


e|----0--


B|----0--


G|----4--


D|----1--


A|----2--


E|-------





again, i'm probably wrong, but this one sounded better to me
rockstar91rockstar91Unknown Date
No, you're right it also sounds better to me.

Well I saw it lot of time live and dave doesn't play a special chord, this is nate which make that note he just keep going with the regular B.
brandonguitarbrandonguitarUnknown Date
bass guitar instead for the whole thing
BurtBobainBurtBobainUnknown Date
thanks for the tab, is it pretty much the same riff throughout the song? and has anyone else noticed most of the chords are the same as off the intro of cute without the e by taking back sunday just a thought
ACDCGuitarist09ACDCGuitarist09Unknown Date
Rhythm guitar is playing something in the background during the intro... Or at least he did when they played live... also, I saw this EXACT tab on fftabs.com
foogibsonfoogibsonUnknown Date
Well you saw it from fftabs.com because it was tabbed by the foo fighters postboard community

I find it better to just play a b as the second note in the chorus.


- I have watched dave play live and


- he plays it like this.
