Everlong Tab

"Everlong" by the Foo Fighters, tabbed and rearranged by Matt Veneklase.
 
When playing the intro and breakdown I use my middle finger like it's
a pick (downstrokes) to make it quieter.  That way I can still hold my
pick and don't have to worry about a volume pedal.
 
Chords used in tab part: Dmaj7 - 10,9,11,xxx  F#sus4 - 7,9,11,xxx
                         Dsus4 - 357xxx  A5 - 577xxx  B5 - 244xxx
 
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
P.M.------ = palm mute for length of dashed line
 
 
Part 1: Play this for the verses and the first part of the intro
and breakdown, just play it once when playing the intro or breakdown.
The verses actually have a slightly different rhythm.

Part 5: Chorus: It would be a waste of my time and your printer
paper to write this part out in tab, listen to the CD for timing.
Chords are written above the words when they are played.
 
Chords: A5 - x022xx  D5 - x577xx  G5 - 355xxx  B5 - x244xx  D5* - 10,00xxx
 
D5* (Play this one with your thumb on the low E-string and your
middle finger just touching the G-string to mute it in case you
accidently strum it.  If that's too hard play it like this: 55xxxx).
 
 
 G5                D5*
 be this real for ever
 B5                     G5            D5*
    If anything could ever be this good again
 B5                          G5
    The only thing I'll ever ask of you:
 D5                      A5                 G5
    gotta promise not to stop when I sayyya when...she said
