Pillow Talk Chords & Tabs
Hey Everyone =D Thought I’d attempt to tab this amazing song by Kids in Glass Houses.
I listened to the acoustic version…
Anyway, some bits I’m not sure of like the chorus or the bridge but I’m pretty sure the
and verse are correct…
Bearing in mind, this is my first ever tab so…it’s probably not that good

Chorus
Note: ok, so this bit I’m not quite sure of. I did get something for Ian’s bit which is
picked. (even though I don’t think it’s correct I’ll put it down anyway..) Joel also
a bit (and again I’ll put them both down!)

Chorus x2 (I think)
Chorus 2 lyrics:
You’ve got a lot to answer for
I’ve got a couple of questions more
Cause you know I’m right.
Most the time.
Burn the books you adorned
With words you stole from fools before you
And those words they write
Aren’t too bright
And those words you write
Keep me up all….
For this bit: Find a strumming pattern:
E ----------------------------------------|
B ----------------------------------------|
G ---8---------6-----------5----------8---|
D ---8---------6-----------5----------8---|
A ---6---------4-----------3----------6---|
E ----------------------------------------|
Night all night all night all night
Break (listen for changes) (All palm muted)
E ---------------------------------------------|
B ---------------------------------------------|
G ---------------------------------------------|
D ---------8-----8-----------------------------|
A --6---8--6--8--6--6--------------------------|
E --4---6-----6-----4----(last-time-let-ring-)-|
Last chorus: Do same strumming pattern (Joel’s)
Then finally:
E ----------------------------------------|
B ----------------------------------------|
G ---8---------6-----------5----------8---|
D ---8---------6-----------5----------8---|
A ---6---------4-----------3----------6---|
E ----------------------------------------|
Night all night all night all night
