Nighttime Big Star
great song from "Sister Lovers". this song is probably easier to fingerpick. it's a
more than straight chords at work here. this is going to be messy but so am i.
throughout the verse you're going to play a G Am7 progression which goes like this.
to the recording for the exact rhythm.
[G] [Am7]
---3----3--| throw in a little strumming at the end of each interval. ---0----1--| ---0----0--| voice the G with your ring on the the low E and pinky on the ------0h2--| high E. -----------| -3---------|
[////////////////////////////]Intro
[G] [Am7] [G] [Am7] [Gmaj7]
[////////////////////////////]
i[Gmaj7]--2-- play around on the high E. move it up to 3 once or twice.
[m--3--]x--0-- i'm not sure if this chord is right, but it sounds close enough.
r--4--
p--5--
x-----
[///////////////////////////////////////////////////]Verse
At [G]nigh[Am7]time I go out and [G]see the [Am7]people
Air goes cool and hurrying on my way
[///////////////////////////////////////////////////]
The chorus has a fingerpicking pattern. i don't know exactly how alex plays, so i won't
it. you can come up with something yourself. Dsus4 is D with your pinky on 3 on the E
and Cmaj7 is C with an open B string.
[///////////////////////////////////////////////////]Chorus
And [D]dressing so [Dsus4]sweet, all the [C]people to see
They're [D]looking at me, all the [C]people to see.[Cmaj7]

And when I set my eyes on you
You look like a kitty
And when you're in the moon

And [C]fell through the skies
[D]Glance in your eyes
And [C]fell through the skies[Cmaj7]

I [D]hate it here
Get me [C]out of here"[Cmaj7]
