Last Friday Night(TGIF) – By Katy Perry
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: (Take a Guess)
Email: victorclark010@yahoo.com

Tuning: eBGDAE

This is the basic chord progression throughout the song, really easy, but kinda boring.
Below this is the way I play it, simply because it’s a lot more fun to play, although
it’s not how it’s played on the studio version of the track, and it sounds better… in my 
opinion. But either way, you should be fine. Feel free to shoot me some questions, tell me
how awesome I am for taking the time to write this all up when I have school work to do, 
or to offer any advice you may have(tab for the Sax solo would be great!).

Like I said, it’s a bit different the Studio Version, but I like it a bit more, cause
there’s more to it. Enjoy.
