Dave Grohl - Play

Note: At the time of me making this, the song was releasedd 2 days ago, the date right now is 8/11/2018. So this is what I have figured out so far, and you guys can add onto to it. I highly doubt that I will actually finish/ make an entire tab to this 23 minute instrumental, but here's my contribution anyway. [Intro] For the opening, all he plays is a B chord, so: e|----------------------| B|----------------------| G|-4444-4444-4444-4444--| x4 D|-4444-4444-4444-4444--| A|-2222-2222-2222-2222--| E|----------------------| | Also he's tremolo | picking this while And then, this cool riff | playing the main riff e|-------------------------------------| | e|--------------| B|-------------------------------------| | B|--------------| G|-4---4444-4---4444-4---4444-4---4444-| | G|-4N-4b5N-br4N-| D|-4---4444-4---4444-4---4444-4---4444-| | D|--------------| A|-0h2-2222-0h2-2222-0h2-2222-0h2-2222-| | A|-2N-2b3N-br2N-| E|-0h2-2222-0h2-2222-0h2-2222-0h2-2222-| | E|--------------| And then, after playing the main riff four times, e|-----------------------------------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------------------------------| G|-7-------7-----------------4---444-4---444-4---444-4---444-| D|-7-7-5-7-7-7-5-7-5---------4---444-4---444-4---444-4---444-| x4 A|-5-7-5-7-5-7-5-7-5---------0h2-222-0h2-222-0h2-222-0h2-222-| E|---5-3-5---5-3-5-3-(3/17\3)0h2-222-0h2-222-0h2-222-0h2-222-| After playing the riff above two times this starts playing e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|-9/11-11-11-11-9/11-11-11-11-9/11-11-11-11-9/11-11-11-11-------------------| D|-9/11-11-11-11-9/11-11-11-11-9/11-11-11-11-9/11-11-11-11-------------------| A|-7/9---9--9--9-7/9---9--9--9-7/9---9--9--9-7/9---9--9--9-------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| And then, this again, but space the strums out like the strums on the very first riff e|-------------------------------------| B|-------------------------------------| G|-4---4444-4---4444-4---4444-4---4444-| D|-4---4444-4---4444-4---4444-4---4444-| A|-0h2-2222-0h2-2222-0h2-2222-0h2-2222-| E|-0h2-2222-0h2-2222-0h2-2222-0h2-2222-| And then, I don't know in the slightest what he plays for the soft/ clean interlude section. But the guitar does play that B note (Fret 2 on A and fret 4 on G) and the bass plays this G|-------------------------------------------------------| D|-9-9-7--9-9-7--9-9-7--9-9-7--9-9-7--9-9-7-4-4-2--4-4-2-| A|------7-------------7-------------7------------2-------| E|-------------------------------------------------------| Then G|--------------------------| D|-4-4-2-4-4-2--4-4-2-4-4-2-| A|--------------------------| E|--------------------------| And back to guitar. So now, he plays this e|------------------------------------| B|------------------------------------| G|-7-7-7------------------------7-7-7-| D|-7-7-7--7-9--7-9--7-9-7-9-7-7-7-7-7-| x8 A|-5-5-5--7-9--7-9--7-9-7-9-7-7-5-5-5-| E|--------5-7--5-7--5-7-5-7-5-5-------| Then he goes on a little bridge. I do not feel like tabbing out the specific strumming pattern so just listen and strum along with him. The chords are: B to D to D# to E e|------------------------------| B|------------------------------| Play this twice and the second time G|-4--------7--------8--------9-| continue strumming along until he D|-4--------7--------8--------9-| goes back to playing the previous A|-2--------5--------6--------7-| riff, which is: E|------------------------------| e|------------------------------------| B|------------------------------------| G|-7-7-7------------------------7-7-7-| D|-7-7-7--7-9--7-9--7-9-7-9-7-7-7-7-7-| x8 A|-5-5-5--7-9--7-9--7-9-7-9-7-7-5-5-5-| E|--------5-7--5-7--5-7-5-7-5-5-------| And then he goes on another bridge thing, again, I'm not going to tab out the pattern, this one is a lot easier anyways B to C# to D to F# to E e|------------------------------| B|------------------------------| G|-4----6-----7----11----9--(9)-| D|-4----6-----7----11----9--(9)-| x8 A|-2----4-----5-----9----7--(7)-| E|--------------------------(7)-| And then back to: e|------------------------------------| B|------------------------------------| G|-7-7-7------------------------7-7-7-| D|-7-7-7--7-9--7-9--7-9-7-9-7-7-7-7-7-| x8 A|-5-5-5--7-9--7-9--7-9-7-9-7-7-5-5-5-| E|--------5-7--5-7--5-7-5-7-5-5-------| But halfway through one (or both?) guitar(s) swtich to this e|------------------------------------| B|------------------------------------| G|-7-7-7------------------------------| D|-7-7-7--7-9--7-9--7-9-7-9-7-9-3-3-3-| x4 A|-5-5-5--7-9--7-9--7-9-7-9-7-9-3-3-3-| E|--------5-7--5-7--5-7-5-7-5-7-1-1-1-| e|------------------------------------| B|------------------------------------| G|-7-7-7------------------------7-7-7-| D|-7-7-7--7-9--7-9--7-9-7-9-7-7-7-7-7-| x8 A|-5-5-5--7-9--7-9--7-9-7-9-7-7-5-5-5-| E|--------5-7--5-7--5-7-5-7-5-5-------| And then this, which is play on both electric and acoustic: e|---------------------------| B|---------------------------| G|-(2)-(4)---9-7-7/10-9-7--4-| D|-(2)-(4)-----------------4-| A|-(0)-(2)-7-7-5-5/8--7-5--2-| E|---------------------------| ^ And then just strum that B until he starts over again ------------------------------------------------------------- So that is it from me (for now), I hope this helps the community and fans figure out how to play this fantastic song. ************************************ | b Bend | br Bend release | / Slide up | \ Slide down | N Tremolo ************************************
