Tuning:
This is my interpretation of every live "Still Take You Home" performances by the Arctic Monkeys from around
2008.
What makes this different than the rest live performances (before 2008) is that they changed the bridge solo
with something completely different and i figured since there are no tabs for it , I'd make one.
Feel free to share this tab but give me credits if you mean using any section of this tab for another one.
I will be doing both guitars (Jamie and Alex) so enjoy and please do correct me if I'm wrong.
Guitar 1 : "Alex"
EBGDAE
Guitar 2 : "Jamie"
EBGDAE
BPM : ~200 , some live performances are way slowed down , such as the 2009 reading festival.
