Stacked Actors Chords & Tabs
"Stacked Actors" By the Foo Fighters. Guitar Tab
This song seems to have a lot of effects, and is therefore not easy to tab, which is the reason for the large amount of notes.
Intro (distorted)
...... these 2 notes may be played by
E-----------------------------------------------------------------|a 2nd guitar.
B-----------------------------------------------------------------|
G---------------------------------------------5b6-5b6-------------|
D-2-2--2-5-2-5--7-7--3-5-3-5--6-6--5-5-4-3-2----------7-5-5-4-3-2-|

E-0-0--0-3-0-3--5-5--1-3-1-3--4-4--3-3-2-1-0----------5-3-3-2-1-0-|
This Riff is played twice with one guitar, then another two times with a second guitar doubling the first.
Verse
E---| This chord is played about roughly every 7 seconds during the verse.
B-0-| It sorta echoes and fades away during that time. Im not sure of the exact
G-1-| technique, but if you have a whammy bar, you can get pretty close by moving it
D-2-| up and down with the correct rhythm.
A-2-| I think there may be another guitar playing something in the background, but
E-0-| it's too faint for me to figure out what it is.
