You're taking it back, on my eye [D] of yours.
You got a lot [A] I know.

To learn Foo Fighters - Back & Forth chords, focus on the sequence of these chords: D, F, C, F, D, A, C, G and A. I suggest starting at a calm pace of 34 BPM, and as you gain confidence, approach the song's BPM of 70. With an eye on the song's key C Minor, set the capo that best suits your vocal range.
