Last Nite by the Strokes
tabbed by Kramer

Intro

(the way they play it is standard except each string is being strummed, only 2 are ringing. So you gotta mute the other 4 strings. If the strokes played the way the people who tab their songs out, they would sound bad. But this is the best way to play the song.)

Guitar 2

(This is the best way to play the rythm part. Mute all strings except B, G, and D. Play it the way you hear it on the record. The sloppier the better.)
