Song: When The Sun Goes Down

This song is definitely one of my favourites from Arctic Monkeys. It's super fun to play 
and it just sounds really awesome altogether. Enjoy  : )

B                                    Eb
        I said, "Who's that girl there?"
          E
        I wonder what went wrong
                       Ebm
  So that she had to roam the streets
             E
     She don't do major credit cards
           Ebm
         I doubt she does reciepts
                             C#                      Ebm. C#m G#m A#m F#
         It's all not quite legitimate.  x2 for second verse

E                                         Ebm
  And I've seen him with girls of the night
        E.                               Ebm
And he told Roxanne to put on her red light
E                                          Ebm
   They're all infected, but he'll be alright
                         C#m.                      Ebm.       E.    F#  (let it ring out)
  Cause he's a scumbag, don't you know?
                                                          Bm          G. F#
   I said he's a scumbag, don't you know?

Bm G. F# x3

Then switch to:  G. F# Bm. Play lead over chords with a second guitar:

e--------------------------------|
B--------------------------------|
G--------------------------------|  x4
D-------------------0--2--4------|
A--------------2-2---------------|
E-3-3-2--2--2--------------------|

Stop the lead at the verse, which is the same chord progression as the previous one:
G.  F#  Bm

Chorus:
                Em.               F#                           Bm
   'Cause they say it changes when the sun goes down
                Em.              F#                            Bm
     Yeah, they say it changes when the sun goes down
         Em.               F#                            Bm
         They say it changes when the sun goes down
                                  Em. F# Bm.  G.     F#
                 Around       here      . Around here.

For the last chords of the song, play the first verse
It changes a little; at the last 3 chords, play:

e--10-10-10-10-10--9----7-|
B--11-11-11-11-11--11---7-|
G--11-11-11-11-11--11---8-|
