You Talk Way Too Much tab by The Strokes

Tabs

For your own amusement, take the part labeled "verse riff 1", shift it up
a fret, and play it by itself. Just do it. (P.S. - It only works if you've
already heard the Is This It album.)

NOTE - The bass usually plays eighth notes on the chords' roots.
