WHAT NEW YORK USED TO BE - The Kills
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Filip Mesko
Email: filip DOT mesko AT gmail DOT com
Tuning: B F# B E G# C# (Tune to drop D and then tune everything three half-steps
lower. This is to get the low, bassy tone which Jamie's got.)
Basically the song is alternating between these two chords/notes:
[A#] [C]
C# |--------|--------| G# |--------|--------| E |--------|--------| B |---11---|---13---| F# |---11---|---13---| B |---11---|---13---|
Alternatively:
[A#] [C]
C# |--------|--------| G# |--------|--------| E |--------|--------| B |--------|--------| F# |--------|--------| B |---11---|---13---|
Sometimes Jamie's playing some fancy parts on the high strings.
Kind of this but very alternating:
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_kills/what_new_york_used_to_be_tab.html )
[A#] [C]
C# |-------------9-9---|---------------------| G# |-------------------|-------11----11------| E |---10--10-10-------|---12-----12----12---| B |---11--------------|---13----------------| F# |---11--------------|---13----------------| B |---11--------------|---13----------------|
At 01:35 there is some sort of bridge (played twice):
[G#] [G] [F#] [F]
C# |-------|-------|-------|-------| G# |-------|-------|-------|-------| E |-------|-------|-------|-------| B |--(9)--|--(8)--|--(7)--|--(6)--| F# |--(9)--|--(8)--|--(7)--|--(6)--| B |---9---|---8---|---7---|---6---|
I'm sure you can stitch it together!
Good luck!
