Tabbed by: Jimbompaleen

Tuning: Standard
Yet another superb song off the Foo Fighter's new album
"Wasting Light".
I could only get some parts of what Pat plays but the
rest off his parts are more or less a variation of
what the others play.
Guitar 1 - Dave Grohl
Guitar 2 - Chris Shiflett
Guitar 3 - Pat Smear
