Foo Fighters - Lonely As You
Album: One By One
Instrument: Guitar
Tuning: eBGDAE
Tabbed By: boogybren
I have gone back and forth with this on the tuning for over a year
and have found that the bass guitar is what is throwing me off.
This is what I feel is the original tuning and notes as recorded
on the album.

* Lyrics *
What would I do, lonely as you
Pleasure or pain I can't choose
What would I do, lonely as you
Pleasure or pain I can't choose
Wake up your dreaming, I can't stand your screaming
Drowning out these prayers, just some words without meaning
Spare all the preaching, my secret's worth keeping
No one understands like I do
Keep out of reach I'm your lead and a leashing
Hide behind these masks though they still see right through them
Every now and then, you're down and out my friend
Down and out again
Down and out again
Down and out again
But I'm down with you
One more time for the last time
One more time for release
One more time for the last time
Everyone wants to believe
Blame it on youth all these years I've been losing
Blame it on the past it's the last place I knew you
Blame all the children, they're raging and ruined
Blame it on the black and the blue
Every now and then, you're down and out my friend
Down and out again
Down and out again
Down and out again
But I'm down with you
One more time for the last time
One more time for release
One more time for the last time
Everyone wants to believe
Every now and then, you're down and out my friend
Down and out again
Down and out again
Down and out again
But I'm down with you
One more time for the last time
One more time for release
One more time for the last time
Everyone wants to believe
One more time for the last time
One more time for release
One more time for the last time
Everyone wants to believe
One more time for the last time
One more time for release
One more time for the very last time
Everyone wants to believe, alright
