Album: In Your Honor (2005)

  • Something that I felt today, something that I heard
    Swingin' from the chandeliers, hanging on your word
    I remember watchin' you, once upon a time
    Dancing from across the room, in another life

    A little bit of resolve is what I need now
    Pin me down, show me how
    A little bit of resolve is what I need now
    Pin me down, show me how

    Lookin' back to find my way, never seemed so hard
    Yesterday's been laid to rest, changing of the guard
    I would never change a thing even if I could
    All the songs we used to sing, everything was good

    A little bit of resolve is what I need now
    Pin me down, show me how
    A little bit of resolve is what I need now
    Pin me down, show me how

    One more year that you're not here
    It's gone and passed you by
    Happened to you, happened to you
    One more tear that you won't hear
    That's gone and passed you by
    Happened to you, happened to you

    A little bit of resolve is what I need now
    Pin me down, show me how
    A little bit of resolve is what I need now
    Pin me down, show me how

    A little bit of resolve
    One more year that you're not here
    It's gone and passed you by (a little bit of resolve)
    A little bit of resolve
    One more year that you're not here
    It's gone and passed you by (a little bit of resolve) Writer/s: Chris Shiflett, David Eric Grohl, Nate Mendel, Taylor Hawkins

  • Jason from JacksonvilleI'd like to correct the end, where "..would never change a thing" could really translate to "Our Nirvana songs were fine the way they were"
  • Chris from Galatia, IlThis song is about a carpet cleaning chemical!
  • Benjamin from Chicago, IlThis song is NOT about Kurt Cobain.
  • Layton from Paris, TxThis is one of my favorite Foo Fighters songs. It crazy how the Foos can take just an easy chord progression and turn it into something amazing. This song is just a G, A7, Em, D chord progression. Simple riffs, great songs.
  • Godwin from Masvingo, ZimbabweFunny why there are so little comments while its such a great song.
  • Dan from Ramona, CaYeah I'm a huge foo fan and that video is not Resolve its DOA!
  • Bert from Pueblo, NmThis song fact is just an over-analsys. You could probably say the exact same thing (minus the "Come As You Are" video, which Dave probably doesn't even remember) as evidence for it being about anybody
  • Cari from Knebworth, EnglandI love the video for this song, it shows the Foo's in fine humor as usual. I especially like the bit where Resolve is playing in the background while everyone's eating in the sushi bar and Dave starts singing it exageratedly.
