Night Time - The xx
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed By : Milo Larkin
Tuning: Standard
This was a surprisingly tricky song to work out. Took much longer than I thought it would.
Some notes sound a bit off but if you listen very closely you can hear they're right.
For the pre-chorus and verse the timing's a bit dodgy so listen closely to get it right,
as it's hard to show timing in regular tab.
Intro:
G|---------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------|
A|-5-5-5~--5\4-4-4~---4/9-9-9~--9-9-9-9~-|
E|---------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------|
A|\5-5-5~--5\4-4-4~---4/9~---------------|
E|---------------------------------------|
Verse (listen for timing):
G|---------|
D|---------|
A|-5-------| x2
E|---------|
G|---------|
D|-7-------|
A|---------|
E|---------|
G|----------------------6~--------|
D|-------7------4-----4-----4-----|
A|-12/-5------4---7---------------|
E|----------5-------5-------------|
Verse 2:
G|-----------------------------------------------------------|
D|-----------------------------------------------------------|
A|-5---//9----5---//9----12----14----12-12-12-12-14-14-14----|
