This is a Call
 by the Foo Fighters.
 
Transcribed by Anthony Tong ad201@torfree.net
 
Listen to song to piece it together & for exact rhythm.
The first time I sent this in I was WAY off.. assuring, isn't it?
 
Normal tuning.

Intro: touch your jack with this rythm(/), then plug it(+):

       / // / +

Verse:
E                                                G
Visiting is pretty, visiting is good, seems that all they ever 
A             E          A
wanted was a brother

Chorus:

  Gtr 1
  F#        A               E          F#    A         E
  This is a call to all my  past resignation This is a call

Gtr 2
e-----0-----------0--------------0-------0-------0-------
B---0---0------0-----0---------0---0---0---0---0---0-----
G-4---------3---------------2---------3------4-----------
D--------------------------------------------------------

If available, have a second guitarist, itll sound better.

The first part is the same as the post chorus riff, 
the second part goes like this:

This is a call (D.Grohl)
played by: Foo fighters
Tabbed by: Sylvain Duchet

I don't know if it's exacltly as they recorded it, but it sounds
like it. When I say "Tab", its not exactly right. I give you 
the chords for verses and choruses. "Tab" is for the riff after the
2nd chorus and outro.

Standard tuning: E-A-D-G-B-E

E                                                G

          A            E        A
they ever wanted was a brother   ....

F#        A              E          F#
This is a call to all my past resignations
A         E           A
This is a call to all ....

Riff:
E|--------------------------------|
B|----0----------------4-3-(0)-2--|
G|----X----------(4)-4-4-2-(0)-2--|      Repeat

Foo Fighters-This Is a Call
this show was in 1995 and when dave grohl still looked like he was the drummer for Nirvana. Personally I Think this is the best song by the Foo Fighters. Anway here are the lyrics. Visiting is pretty Visiting is good Seems that all they ever wanted was a brother This can be a secret We can keep it good Even all the ever wanting had a problem This is a call to all my Past resignations It's been too long Fingernails are pretty Fingernails are good Seems that all they ever wanted was a marking Them balloons are pretty Big and say they should Ever fall to ground Call the magic marker This is a call to all my Past resignations This is a call to all This is a call to all my Past resignations It's been too long Minicyn is pretty Minicyn is good Seems that all the cysts and mollusks tend to barter Ritalin is easy Ritalin is good Even all the ones Who watered down the daughter
