Foo Fighters - Statues
Album: Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace - Track 10
Tuning: Standard (EBGDAe)
I was trying to work out the tab, and I got pretty far, then I found this tab and just
with it, I changed a little part in the solo that I thought was wrong, and the rest
pretty correct, in the verse I changed the last chord in the sequence to a Bb instead of
C,
which I thought was incorrect. Please Comment and Rate! fretandroid@hotmail.com

Chorus x3 [3:03 - END]
(Let G ring out)
Lyrics:
You and I were two old and tortured souls
Repaired by a love of broken things
In a life, just some bodies growing old
No fear of the end, of anything
We're just ordinary people, you and me
Time will turn us into statues, eventually
We got by, though we never needed much
A sliver of hope, no diamond rings
We got high, it was heaven it was hell
Flying over them, with broken wings
We're just ordinary people, you and me
Time will turn us into statues, eventually
Oh, just two ordinary people, you and me
Time will turn us into statues, eventually
Our bones forever in stone
Monuments of life
To dust, as everything must
We fade away in time, oh
We're just ordinary people, you and me
Time will turn us into statues, eventually
Oh, just two ordinary people, you and me
Oh, time will turn us into statues, eventually
