But Honestly -Foo Fighters
Tuned Standard
I came here to print off a version of this song that I already know, but both
versions were off. Here are the Chords in a much better/easier way to play them.
Notes:
1. Need help? Have questions? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OF7NPz8Tfp8
2. I have included 3 versions of the Chorus, but same chords. (see end)
3. E and E* are often interchangeable, just find what works best for you
4. The outro can be played with full chords if you want.
5. Some chords may be above the wrong words, but listen to strumming pattern

Where are you off to with that head of yours?
E B A A
*
Is there somewhere you should be?
E B A A

Was it something that I said the time I held you down
E B A A

and told you it's not you it's only me?
F#
Maybe
A E B F#
Don't take what I don't need
(Give me back my peace of mind)
A E B F#
Don't say what I don't need
(Give my back my precious time)
A E B F#
No way you'll silence me
E

You'll see
E B A A

What you up to now your mirror's gone?
E B A A

Is there someone you should be?
E B A A

Did you think I was just fooling 'round with you?
E B A A

But honestly x3

No way you'll silence me
(Give me back my peace and quiet)
A E B F#
Nowhere to hide from me
E
*
You'll see
B C#m
And tonight I thank the stars
C
As I count my lucky scars
E
For everything you've given me
B C#m
And all the wants I gave to you
C
Something borrowed, something blue
If you want them back
E
I'll give it to you
D
Give it to you
C
Give it to you
A
Give it to you
(repeat 4 times)
E
And one more thing that I gave to you
D
And one more thing that I gave to you
C
And one more thing that I gave to you
A
And one more thing that I gave to you
(repeat 2 times)
