This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Bring On The Night - The Police

-----------------------------------------------

Tabbed by Howard Wright

Most of this song has one riff going along throughout the verses, then

it changes to a few chords for the chorus.

Simple stuff, but very good !

I havn't written any 'slide' symbols, but obviously you're moving pretty

much the same shape up and down, so you get some of the notes sliding up

and down - like when you change from the 5th fret to the 12th.

This pattern repeats for the verses, then goes into:

Chorus :

--------

(Hit the chords on the offbeat : 1 AND 2 AND 3 AND 4 AND etc)

E-----7---7---7---7-------9---9---9---9---------12--12--12--12---------|
B-----8---8---8---8-------10--10--10--10--------13--13--13--13---------|
G-----7---7---7---7-------9---9---9---9---------12--12--12--12---------|
D----------------------------------------------------------------------|
A----------------------------------------------------------------------|
E----------------------------------------------------------------------|

Bring on the night I couldn't stand

E-------7---7-----9---9----------------|
B-------8---8-----10--10---------------|
G-------7---7-----9---9----------------|
D--------------------------------------|
A--------------------------------------|
E--------------------------------------|

another hour of daylight

Repeat sequence once.

That's about it !
