Foo Fighters – Times Like These Album: 2006 - Skin And Bones Instruments: Guitars Tuning: eBGDAE Tabbed By: Nic Wright & LukeAV (Chord shapes) {pick them and have the strumming dude/chick in the background) D - xx0232 Am - x02210 Am7 - x02213 C - x32013 *when strumming this chord like the am/7 do the same and put the pinkie in the same spot Em7 - 022033 This is for the Times Likes These of the new live album Skin And Bones. I haven't heard any others but I I'm pretty sure that he picks the verses in this one. Though it does sound good with a steel string acoustic picking the notes, and a classical guitar strumming them in the background, but that is a story for another day. Intro: a plain D while hammering the A (2nd fret) on the G sting. e||---2-2-2---2-----2-----2-----2-2---|| B||o--3-3-3---3-----3-----3-----3-3--o|| G||---0-2-2-0-2---0-2---0-2---0-2-2---||x3 D||---0-0-0-0-0---0-0---0-0---0-0-0---|| A||o---------------------------------o|| E||-----------------------------------|| This is the picking for the Verses, its quite easy its basically a lifting of one finger or so D e||-------0-----2------0------|| B||-----3---3------3-----3----|| G||---2-------2------2-----2--|| D||-0-------------------------|| A||---------------------------|| E||---------------------------|| Am7 Am Am7 C e||-------3-----0-----3-------------3------------0-------|| B||-----1---1-----1-----1-----------1-1----------1-1-----|| G||---2-------2-----2-------------0-----0------0-----0---|| D||-2---------------------------2------------2-----------|| A||------------------------2--3------------2-------------|| E||------------------------------------------------------|| Strumming pattern: (strumming pattern is consistent mostly throughout with limited variations, with the exception of the intro and the d chord, they kinda meld too so watch out for that) D Am Am7 d-d-u-u-d-u-d-d-u-u-d-u d-d-u-u-d-u-d-d-u-u-d-u *then hit 2nd fret a string* C *pinkie down* Em7 D(intro) d-d-u-u-d-u-d-d-u-u-d-u d-d-d-d-d-u Verse D Am Am7 I, I’m a one way motorway C Em7 D intro I’m the one that drives away, follows you back home D Am Am7 I, I’m a streetlight shining C Em Em7 D intro I’m a white light blinding bright, burning off and on Chorus C Em7 D It’s times like these you learn to live again C Em7 D It’s times like these you give and give again C Em7 D It’s times like these you learn to love again C Em7 D intro It’s times like these time and time again Verse D Am Am7 I, I’m a new day rising C Em7 D intro I’m a brand new sky that hangs stars upon tonight D Am Am7 I, I’m a little divided C Em7 D intro Do I stay or run away and leave it all behind Interlude This has 3 unique guitar parts so heres all 3...
