Times Like These  Foo Fighters

Band: Foo Fighters
Album: One by One
Song: Times Like These
Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)
Tabbed by: Josh
E-mail: wchstbone@yahoo.com
I wrote this tab because there were many good tabs out there that got extremely
close, they just left out little things. This tab is my first and is 99.999% correct.
Chords:
D - xx0232
Am7 - x02213
C - x32013
Em(3) - 022003
 
 The arrows mean to strum the chord. (--->--->---)

The asterick is meant to denote the transitions from chord to chord.
The extra line under some of the tabs is to show how to strum it,
d = downstroke and u = upstroke.
The tilde (~) means to hit the strings and let them ring.
In the intro, the bottom two strings aren't really needed, I just felt it sounded fuller
and closer to the song. Fret the F# on the bottom E string with your thumb.

slippyslot (report)

yeah, the D13 does`nt sound right, just hammer on and off the 1st finger on a Dm. Is`nt Chordie great..... many thanks for the posts...

djluciano (report)

just play the D13 w/ the first 3 stings...it's a D7...

gnorman46 (report)

Cmon, if you don't like his video put your own up. Remember without chordie and other sites like this we would still be learning the old way. I like this just fine.

joeb87 (report)

Also, in reference to the D13 part. If you want to play it the same way Dave does you play a G note when playing the Am in a similar patern to the D13 note

dada (report)

before there was a internet w/ tabs and chord charts, this is how you figured out songs. You listened to the song or watched it performed...good stuff

propolispills (report)

Very cool, thanks.I can use the tab to figure it out, It's nice to hear it being played acoustically. I don't have that version at home.

vague (report)

yer thats tops bro nice work mate.

Slaam (report)

Excellent!

Krapyl (report)

What are you complaining about!!!!?
I haven`t heard all the two million songs in here before, and even the ones I like, and know, I miss out on, because I dont recognice them in text, just listening to the video once, without even seeing it, made me play it, my way, to my satisfaction.
I`ll continue my search for songs I know, now.
Keep up the good work all contributors!

This isn't a tutorial, it's a music video.

the "index finger lifting" on the D ... that

VStarMan (report)

Shouldn't this be an instructional type video and not a look at me type video?

With reference to the D13 chord, if you play strings 1, 3 and 5 at the 5th fret, leaving the other strings open it will give you the sound your looking for. When playing it I find it is pretty straight forward to slide to this from the Em. I use fingers 2 and 3 for the Em and slide finger 2 to the 5th fret and use this to mute string 6. Hope this helps.

mikenamys (report)

Pretty bold calling Dave Grohl an idiot!
I watched this video at home and realized where he gets the cool sound by lifting the index finger up and down during the D chord.

Not real sure on the D13 so I just go back to a D and sounds good to me! Get all finger flusterd on the D13

pleasantstrummer (report)

Excellent !! Would have to give this 5 stars. Although initially the video appears disappointing as far as being a 'tutorial' goes, it was when I spotted the 'Menu' button and what that brings up if you click on it WHILE the video is playing. If you do this, you are presented with other videos, all in my opinion also very good and useful. However, the most useful is that provided by Justin Sandercoe. This is a superb quality in depth tutorial and well worth checking out. Justin also has a web site giving completely free (apparently relying on donations) tutorials so check it out. To conclude, many thanks to all contributors!!

sno_man80 (report)

It showed (in some parts) a demonstration of the song, but also let you hear how it sounde

clibbo (report)

this vid shows Dave Grohl changing the way the tune goes to better suit the acoustic guitar,so he is not just slowing down the original but changing it! a good tip for anyone making an acoustic track from an 'electric' record

ebigham1 (report)

This video didn't show me anything but an idiot who made a video. Where is this relevant to learning guitar???
