Kids In America - Foo Fighters
Album: Songs From The Laundry Room (EP)2015
This will give you the chords to use and where to use, listen to song for when and where to palm mute,
you should figure it out easily enough. If you listen close one guitar is arpeggiating some of the chords
at certain spots while the other guitar is palm muting.
So Bb would go (E str)6-6 (A str)8-8 (D str)8-8 (A str)8-8
It's not always the same so listen for it. And one guitar sounds like they are hitting harmonics
on the first couple lines.
e|----Bb-----Ab-----Gb-----Eb-----F-----Db-----|
