------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LIGHTS OFF - Jay Sean ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- April 24th 2010 Tabbed by: Wayne S Tuning: Standard EADGBE Capo: 3 Chords: Bm 224432 or xx0321 - 224432 definitely sounds better G 320033 or 355433 - I feel 355433 may be easier to switch to after Bm D x00323 A 002220 For no capo, just the chords: Bm -> Dm - 557765 or 000231. 557765 preferred. G -> A#/Bb - 688766 or 113331 - Easier to transition from Dm to 688766. D -> F - 133211 A -> C - 032010 or 335553 or 8-10-9-9-8-8 Haven't tabbed out the no capo version [1], [2], [3], [4] are cues for the vocals. They should line up with the string+fret to play. For example, for [1], it lines up with "2", so for the first line of the first verse, play the A string (5th string) on 2nd fret, you sing "losing" (chorus) at the same time. You can play the verses by finger-picking too, but you wouldn't want to play the whole song like that, would you? It would sound too monotonous! Hence I made the verses/bridges chords, and the finger-picking (you can actually hear that in the song). If you want to play the verses by picking, then Bm -> [1] G -> [2] D -> [3] A -> [4] Use the same cues as you use for the chorus.
