Foo Fighters - Exhausted
Tabbed by
Anthony McCaffrey
This is a brilliant song and it sounds great on acoustic or electric guitars. If you are
an electric guitar be sure to crank up the distortion.
Notes:
- Dropped D Tuning
- Make sure you mute the low 'D' when it's not used.
- The strumming pattern is only personal preference,
if it sounds better played differently then feel free
to leave a comment, I'm open to suggestions. The
section I was unsure about with regards to strumming
was bridge 2, try it and see what you think.
- I tend to play the lower strings (A+D) a little
harder on the down strums and the light strings
(G+B+E) a little harder on the up strums. I sometimes
miss a few strings on some strums just to give a
similar sound to the way Grohl plays it on the album.
- There’s around a 50 second gap towards the end of the
song.. You'll probably want to shorten it a bit if
you're on the acoustic and if you're using an electric
guitar make sure you get some feedback during this pause.
I don't think you need to be exact with the timing, this
section is just really good for a build up.
- At the start of each section of the chorus you can
sometimes hear him slide down the fret board rather than
just strumming the open D power chord.
- Lyrics aren't 100% :S

Verse 1.
I'm not around that much running
exhausted...and lost
If it could be undone will it
have costed...it's taught
and lost...
Verse 2.
Blowing away we stray, wilted
insulted...at fault
What if the day had stayed in bed
these baubles...we've brought
at fault...
Verse 3.
After the bliss has long ended
this caution...this fault
Give me a breeze that's long winded
accosted...adult
arrested...
Thank for looking and thanks to Dave for such a good song.
C+C much appreciated.
