The Strokes - Last Nite
Tabbed and edited by JohnLennon1984
I've tried really hard to make this sound EXACTLY as it is in the song.
The song is divided into several different parts to make it easier for you to
navigate.
All lyrics are included also.
I guarantee you'll take a while to get through this tab, but it is well worth it!
Enjoy.
Questons/Comments: JLennonGFreeman@aol.com (Let me know what you think of this)
NOTE:
Lyrics are BELOW their corresponding phrase(s)
Fast tempo (it should be cut time, but here it is common time to make it easier)
Where it says "x2" on the right of a chord, it means to play the chord's strumming pattern
TWICE.
The strumming patterns are two measures long.
Some patterns have their own directions on how they are to be played.
