Foo Fighters is an American rock band formed in Seattle, Washington in 1994. It was founded by former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl as a one-man project following the dissolution of Nirvana after the suicide of Kurt Cobain. The group took its name from "Foo fighter", a nickname coined by Allied aircraft pilots for UFOs and other aerial phenomena. Over the course of their career, Foo Fighters have won 12 Grammy Awards, including Best Rock Album four times.

Artist: Foo Fighters Song: Baker Street From: B-side of My Hero single (in UK) Tabbed by: Giles Taylor Email: [email protected]
To get the feel of the strumming and solos etc.. you should listen to the song, I know it was released as a B-side to the My Hero single in the UK, I don't know about releases in America though.
All chords are power chords, except during the verse, and the minor chords. You can also try picking the Dm and Am chords at the beginning of the chorus if you have two guitars, for a nice effect. The chorus can also be played with Dm7 and Am7, but I don't think it sounds right like that.

[Solo 1] (with power chords - should be strummed by guitar 2 during solo)

A Winding your way down on Baker Street A Light in your head, and dead on your feet EmG Well another crazy day, you drink the night away D And forget about everything
A This city's dance makes you feel so cold, it's got A So many people but its got no soul EmG And its taken you so long to find out you were wrong D When you thought it held everything.
DmAm You used to think that it was so easy DmAm You used to say that it was so easy CGD But you're trying, you're trying now DmAm Another year and then you'd be happy DmAm Just one more year and then you'd be happy CGAG But you're crying, you're crying now
--Repeat Solo--
A Way down the street there's a light in his place A You open the door, he's got that look on his face EmG And he asks you where you've been, you tell him who you've seen D And you talk about everything
A He's got this dream about buying some land A He's gonna give up the crack and the one night stands EmG And then he'll settle down, it's a quiet little town D And forget about everything
DmAm But you know he'll always keep moving DmAm You know he's never gonna stop moving CGD Cause he's rolling, he's the rolling stone DmAm And when you wake up it's a new morning DmAm The sun is shining it's a new morning CGAD And you're going, you're going home
