Foo Fighters

Foo Fighters - Cheer Up Boys Your Make Up Is Running guitar tab

Ive put this together from what ive seen them play live on TV/Youtube etc. I saw

them live at B'ham 06/11/07 and positioned myself in front of Shifty & watched

what they were playing when I remembered to lol. Was a truly awesome gig!

This tab sounds correct. Not 100% sure about Shiftys part during the bridge...

As always im open to suggestions.

Listen to the song to work out the order.

Standard Tuning: EADGBe

{Guitar 1 Grohl,

Guitar 2 Shifty}.)

Lyrics

It was meant to be but all along it never meant a thing

Never stopped to ask you why you didn't pass me by

Did you see me when your life flashed before your eyes?

Was it just that I wasn't hard enough, hard enough for you?

Stop using my

(Stop me, stop me, stop me)

Confusion

(Stop me, stop me, stop me)

Wait, wait, theres a world out there

(There's a world out there)

Dont you deny me

(Dont you deny me)

Give me one last wish

(Give me one last wish)

There's a world out there

Elementary, I solved them all, all your mysteries

Settle down and with good time, we can solve all mine

Tell me lies, oh tell me when, tell me off again

And I will let you know when I've had enough, had enough of you

Stop using my

(Stop me, stop me, stop me)

Confusion

(Stop me, stop me, stop me)

Wait, wait, theres a world out there

(There's a world out there)

Dont you deny me

(Dont you deny me)

Give me one last wish

(Theres a world out there)

Theres a world out there

(Dont you deny me)

Know youve got your reasons

Hey, let's call it even

Turn out all the lights and go to bed

Still I get this feeling

No one will believe me

When I let these ghosts outside my head

Theres a world out there

(Theres a world out there)

Dont you deny me

(Dont you deny me)

Give me one last wish

(Give me one last wish)

Dont you deny me

(Dont you deny me)

There's a world out there

(There's a world out there)

Dont you deny me

(Dont you deny me)

Give me one last wish

(Theres a world out there)

Theres a world out there

(Dont you deny me)
