Song: Good Night
Artist: Reece Mastin
Genre: Pop
INTRODUCTION:
This is my first tab!
Not asking for pity, if you think its sh#t, everyone here does that, haha.
But please feel free to comment on how I can make any future tabs or this tab better.
NOTES:
I realised: NO ONE on this site or any other at that, had a good tab to this song and
they were all sh#tty chords and powerchords, which is what this song is, but these are
more precise and sound, what I think 99.9% correct to the actual song. I've worked these
chords out from watching the videos and listening to the tracks.
This is a POP hit, so literally, it only has 4 chords.
If you're just playing an acoustic version, just learn the first 4 chords shown at the
start and that's you done, but make sure you learn how to place it with the words, which
is also shown. ;)
Hope y'all enjoy playing!
TAB:
o Tuning:
Guitar 1: E Standard (If you like, you can play in Drop D, if you're lazy and want to
blend in the top E string). - Recommended for beginners.
Guitar 2: Drop D (Or E standard, with normal power-chords).
I find it sounds better when played with bar chords(Drop D).
If you're a beginner, stick with drop D, so its not too confusing.
Drop D tuning is normal tuning, except the low E string, tuned down to a D.
o Difficulty: Novice.
o What stuff means:
D = Downwards strum.
U = Upwards strum.
x = Silence that mofo.
GUITAR 1 (MAIN GUITAR - CHORDS).
This guitar is the harder part, but is still quite easy, even for beginners.

So now you know the strumming pattern and chords, its the same all through the verse,
now just play it to the words...
G CHORD
I got my T-shirt and sneakers on,
D CHORD
No one to mess around with fate,
Em CHORD
It feels so wrong...
C CHORD
G CHORD
I'm gonna live it up tonight,
D CHORD
Forgetting those who dim,
Em CHORD
My light...
C CHORD
G CHORD
Let's go back to rock N' roll,
D CHORD
We're people just let go,
Em CHORD
And let the music flow - oh - whoa -
C CHORD
Oh!
o IF JUST PLAYING WITH THE ONE GUITAR, skip down to the chorus.
GUITAR 2 (DISTORTED GUITAR - BAR CHORDS).
I'm not good with effect pedals, but its some kind of distortion, haha.
As soon as Reece starts singing: "I'm gonna' live it up tonight" that's when this guitar
comes in. This guitar part is easier to play still and its just all bar chords:
I'm gonna live it up tonight...

**CHORUS (Repeat that again twice).**
VERSE 3 (The solo the 2nd guitar does, during this part, is too hard to figure out. I
haven't got too many effects with my guitar, so it's not practical. If I can later, I'll
have a crack and put it up, most likely won't be for a while though. JUST USE THE SAME
STRUMMING AND CHORDS FROM THE FIRST 2 PARTS:
Guitar 1:
G CHORD
Now we're gonna' get up,
D CHORD
Now we're gonna' get up
Em CHORD
Just let yourself lose control,
C CHORD
Let the music take hold,
G CHORD
Everybody get up,
D CHORD
Everybody get up,
Em CHORD
It's time that you know,
C CHORD
How to let it go,
G CHORD
Let's go back to rock N'Roll
D
Where the music just flows
Em
And everybody knows...
**CHORUS (Repeat that again twice).**
OUTRO(Guitar 1):
The same strumming played all verses, to these words:
G CHORD
D CHORD
I'm just looking...
Em CHORD
...For a goodnight.
C CHORD
Hope this helped!
THIS IS MY TAB! :D
o Feedback would be awesome!
o Constructive/Critty sh#t
o Comment on bad grammar, idk?
o Haha, thanks and bye! :3
