Soundtrack For The Night by Joel Plaskett

Tabs

Joel Plaskett Emergency
"Soundtrack for the night"
Album: Ashtray Rock

Tabbed by: Colin Finlay colinwfinlay #@# rogers.com

Tuning: Open Chord diagramG+G tuning
Capo: 5th fret

-Start by tuning your sixth string down a tone to D. Check the tuning with the fourth (Chord diagramD MajorD) string.

-Then tune your fifth string down a tone to G. Check the tuning with the third (Chord diagramG+G) string.

-Lastly, tune your first string down a tone to D. Check the tuning with the fourth (Chord diagramD MajorD) string.

-Put capo on 5th fret.
Don't ask me how I figured out this song was in open Chord diagramG+G tuning, but it just kind of came to me.
I figured out how to play the intro in standard tuning, but it just didn't sound right, and
once you get to the pre-chorus and chorus it needs to be in open Chord diagramG+G with a capo on the 5th fret.
I watched some videos of this song being played live to make sure I was on the right path.

This tab is always up for interpretation, I believe most of it is correct, but if you think
you have something to add to it, please email me!


Intro

"Yeah I loved our band...." (Chords, listen to song for rhythm)

Pre-Chorus

"And through the summer...."

*This part is played picking each chord up and down, or you can strum it, I think there is
a mandolin that plays it too.

Chorus

"Anybody, anybody else would be gone long gone"

*Again this part is played with a manolin picking. This is just the guitar part but if
you're playing it by yourself you can easily here the mandolin part and figure it out.
