Song Title: Stacked Actors
Released: October 1999
Album- There is Nothing Left to Lose
Tabbed: 24-1-00
The original by gavin helped a lot, and the song is a lot harder
than it sounds, but its in Drop A. The Sixth string (low E) is tuned
down to an A. If you try and play a long with your guitar tuned to D
or anything else it sounds wrong. There a few corrections. thanks to
Gavin
for the original.
Drop Tuning
Key : - this is a harmonic on the fourth fret of the drop A it
is a C#. If you can't do that you can play the note in
brackets like this (6 6)
Intro (riff 1) just Gtr1 (Dave)
x2
(riff2) gtr's 1 and 2 and bass
(riff 2a)
(the bass riff at the end of 2a)
Verse (riff 3)
Guitar 1 plays:
[Am7]
Guitar two plays this through a a tremolo pedal on fast
Oh mirror mirror, your'e coming in clear
I'm finally somewhere in between
I'm impressed what a beautiful chest
I never meant to make a big scene
Will you resign to the latest design
You look so messy when you dress up in dreams
One more for hire, a wonderful liar
I think its time we should all become clean
Pre Chorus (riff 3)
Stack dead actors Stacked to the rafters Line up all
the bastards all I want is the truth
Chorus (riff 2 x2 riff 2a x1)
Hey Hey now, can you fake it
Can you make it look like we want
Hey Hey now, can you take it
And we cry when they all die blonde
Verse 2 (riff 3)
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/f/foo_fighters/stacked_actors_tab_ver_5.html )
little solo before second verse (guitar 2):
God bless, what a sensitive mess
Yeah but things aren't always what they seem
Your teary eyes, your famous disguise
Never knowing who to believe
See through yeah, but what do you do
When you're just another ageing drag queen
Pre Chorus (riff 4)
Chorus 2 (riff 2 x3 riff 2a x1)
Hey Hey now, can you fake it
Can you make it look like we want
Hey Hey now, can you take it
And we cry when they all die blonde
Stack dead actors. Stacked to the rafters
Line up all the bastards all I want is the truth
Stack dead actors. Stacked to the rafters
Line up all the bastards
And we cry when they all die blonde
Solo

Guitar 1:

[bass]and a load of foo fighters. It will also have a lot other tab. If You
