Chords

--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Last Night – The Traveling Wilburys --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Written by: Dylan/Harrison/Lynne/Orbison/Petty From: “Vol. 1” (1988) Tabbed by: maguri The same chord pattern is used for verse and chorus, but the bass plays a descending line in the chorus. I indicated the bass line with slash chords. It is of course possible to just leave out these notes and play the regular chords throughout. If you have a bass playing along: use these notes in the chorus. One guitar part plays A-shapes (transpose this chord sheet -3 and use a capo 3rd fret to match the original key). Nice addition if you have more than one player.
