Foo Fighters - Rope Lyrics






This indecision's got me climbing up the walls
I've been cheating gravity and waiting on the falls
How did this come over me, I thought I was above it all
Our hope's gone up in smoke, swallow your crown

Choke! On a kiss, I thought I'd save my breath for you
Choke! On a kiss, I thought I'd save my breath for you
Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm hanging on you
Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm pulling for you now
Give me some rope I'm coming out of my head, into the clear
When you go I come loose

These premonitions got me crying up a storm
Leave your condition, this position does no harm

Choke! On a kiss, I thought I'd save my breath for you
Choke! On a kiss, I thought I'd save my breath for you
Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm hanging on you
Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm pulling for you now
Give me some rope I'm coming out of my head, into the clear
When you go I come loose

Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm hanging on you
Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm pulling for you now
Give me some hope I'm coming through, I'm counting on you
Give me some rope I'm coming out of my head, into the clear
When you go I come...
Loose

Foo Fighters Rope Comments
  1. g.... ....

    An epileptics worst nightmare.

  2. I.... D....

    Playing guitar with gloves on?

    Last time I tried that, I'm pretty sure it didn't work

  3. F.... 2....

    The begining reminds me of the who

  4. R.... v....

    This has serious elements of Rush flavor to it... from Taylor as well as choice of notes and chords, from something Alex Lifeson might play.... Which is a compliment to Rush being emulated.

  5. R.... H....

    I love this song it deserved more attention

  6. E.... ....

    This is prog as hell!

  7. M.... V....

    This song is underrated.

  8. C.... T....

    Thank u Neil

  9. J.... B....

    This is such a kickass song

  10. P.... T....

    Happy birthday, Dave! 🎂🥂🧡

  11. M.... F....

    What great memories of singing this FF classic in my favorite karaoke bar and getting a standing ovation for it back when the song first came out!

  12. S.... A....

    this is a fuckin classic...history will prove.

  13. D.... C....

    Classic video world premiere on the vuse channel

  14. I.... D....

    NEEDS MORE VIEWS!!!!

  15. J.... ....

    this is very queens of the stone age or kyuss too me...just saing...

  16. K.... t....

    Why is the area they're in reminds me of the movie The Cube.

  17. D.... P....

    It sounds off beat but on beat on some parts.

  18. X.... C....

    How do they leave and get into that room

  19. a.... m....

    I love foo fighters! 😍

    a.... m....

    So do I @Alan Martinez - Dave Grohl's a songwriting and musical genius!

  20. G.... F....

    un ottio david grol alla chitarra

  21. L.... G....

    Anche stavolta la struttura in crescendo ed il finale esplosivo sono resi con maestria in questo video.
    Come ex batterista, faccio i complimenti ad un vero batterista, anzi a due veri batteristi...

  22. j.... r....

    Love the Neil Peart signature ride pattern being used 👌👌

    j.... r....

    Found my fellow Rush fan.
    Undoubtedly a huge influence for the Foo Fighters.
    RIP Neil Peart.

    j.... r....

    @Byron Dean RIP indeed Neil Peart! :'-(

  23. N.... A....

    I like that guitar Dave Grohl's holding. I want it lol.

  24. L.... l....

    When you are condenado to the succeless! Solo?! Jaja! Dave está condenado al éxito la banda es lo más gracias a esa batería y voz por fin escuchamos el conjunto que hace la belleza de la música, la música, la q ya no existe!

  25. L.... l....

    I feel so good! What sound!! Guitar, drums, voice all is so f* perfect! F F❤️

  26. s.... v....

    just arrived from this song different click im a street light shining i'm as new day rising........

  27. T.... T....

    Hey guys, just a friendly reminder the Foo Fighters promoted AIDs denialism! Lawl!

    T.... T....

    Nearly 20 years ago. Find me one instance of Dave & the rest of the band still holding those beliefs today and you may have a leg to stand on.

  28. T.... C....

    Probably one of best drummers ever

  29. L.... S....

    One of my fav Foos songs😁😎😍

  30. k.... ....

    You can notice a better sound from the drums because this album was recorded on analog tape. But if you compare the "Concrete and Gold" drum sound you can immediately say these songs are recorded on DAW.

    k.... ....

    What’s DAW?

    k.... ....

    @BoxOfCurryos Digital Audio Workstation (Pro-Tools, Cubase, etc)

  31. C.... C....

    Does anyone else see how much this song was inspired by rush’s YYZ or am I the only one?

  32. C.... S....

    Does Dave hit the camera with the guitar at 3:33? The guitar gets close and then there's a weird little lightning thing that happens, like maybe he smacked it.

  33. E.... ....

    why does the lead look like keanu reeves

  34. J.... N....

    My favourite Foo Fighters song by a mile.😎

  35. B.... L....

    Cobain came back to play drums

  36. T.... P....

    Turn it up to eleven!

  37. j.... S....

    Tem uma pegada de smell like tem Spirit 📼🔭🎧👊👿😎😎😎🤙

  38. E.... P....

    After a lot of practise, I can finally nail that drum solo! 🥁 but I still struggle with the drums in the chorus 😅😅. I am working on those rudiments.

    The 2x snares Taylor puts in the musical break really brings out the adrenalin! 🥁🥁🥁🥁😮😲😝🤘🤘🏋🏻‍♂️🤸🏻‍♂️💪!

  39. M.... F....

    When this song premiered here on 3/10/2011, I was SO happy...8 years later, I can still rock it!

    M.... F....

    Me to. I was bedridden and in terrible pain. It was the perfect distraction. ❤️

  40. D.... P....

    Those drum and bass accents at :49 and 2:06 are so tight.

  41. M.... C....

    yeeeeeeeee

  42. J.... W....

    Still love 3:33 where Dave smacks the camera.

  43. F.... R....

    hye 2019

  48. X.... T....

  49. E.... J....

    One of the coolest songs, one of the coolest videos, one of the coolest vocal tracks, one of the coolest drum solos, and one of the coolest guitar solos! It's just one of the coolest things ever!!!!!!!

  50. M.... ....

    I Found You!!!

  51. E.... C....

    I remember when I was about to turn 11, I went to my first NASCAR race. This was in May 2011, so this song was getting nonstop airplay on rock stations, and of course it played on the way to the race. Now every time I go to Darlington for the race, I have to play this song. It brings back memories of the times I spent as a kid getting to see my first race.

  52. v.... w....

    Amazing😍

  53. J.... H....

    Yes great band and song

  54. J.... D....

    I saw this video at Kings Island today. I saw Dave Grohl and was wondering if this was the Foo Fighters. I like the FF, but I had never seen this video. I’m glad I have now.

  55. j.... ....

  62. R.... M....

    When a band uses three guitars sooner or later they have to come up with something like this.

  64. P.... R....

    Época boa em

  65. S.... R....

  67. R.... C....
