----------------------------------------------------------------------------- LATE IN THE EVENING - Paul Simon ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Toki Barron E-mail: Tuning: Standard A great tune written in F. Basic form is "root-octave-ninth-octave". You can get lazy with this and just go octave-octave-ninth-octave. Or go fancy and play root-root- octave-ninth-octave. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yx-VFTpTzUI Notice Tony Levin is playing with a 5 string bass, a little easier b/c you don't have to move your hand as much to hit the low F. Anyhow, here are the basic riffs that are used over and over: F: G|----------| D|---3-5-3--| A|----------| E|-1--------| Bb: G|----------| D|---8-10-8-| A|----------| E|-6--------| C: G|-----------| D|--10-12-10-| A|-----------| E|-8---------| If you have a five string bass, the F part works a little better because you don't have to move your hands as much: F (on a five string bass): G|----------| D|----------| A|---8-10-8-| E|----------| B|-6--------| Intro: G|------------------------------------------------------------| D|---3-5-3-----3-5-3-----3-5-3-----3-5-3-----8-10-8----8-10-8-| A|------------------------------------------------------------| E|-1---------1---------1---------1---------6---------6--------| G|--------------------------------------------------------------| D|---3-5-3-----3-5-3----10-12-10---10-12-10----3-5-3------------| A|--------------------------------------------------------------| E|-1---------1---------8----------8----------1---------11-33-5--| Verses: G|------------------------------------------------------------| D|---8-10-8----8-10-8----8-10-8----3-5-3-----3-5-3-----8-10-8-| A|------------------------------------------------------------| E|-6---------6---------6---------1---------1---------6--------| G|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------| D|---8-10-8----8-10-8----3-5-3-----3-5-3----10-12-10---10-12-10----3-5-3-----3-5-3--| A|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|-6---------6---------1---------1---------8----------8----------1---------1--------| Trumpet solos: G|------------------------------------------------------------| D|---8-10-8----8-10-8----3-5-3-----3-5-3-----8-10-8----8-10-8-| A|------------------------------------------------------------| E|-6---------6---------1---------1---------6---------6--------| G|----------------------------------------------------------------| D|---3-5-3-----3-5-3-----10-12-10----10-12-10----3-5-3-----3-5-3--| A|----------------------------------------------------------------| E|-1---------1---------8-----------8------------1---------1-------|
