Under Control

Artist: The Strokes
Title: Under Control
Album: Room On Fire (RCA 2003)


* It's all here. Shouldn't be too hard to figure out strucutre.

* There is a lot of sliding between chords in this song (including the solo)
  but I'll leave that up to you.

Gtr.1 - Albert
Gtr.2 - Nick

Verse - Guitar 2 
(Nick actually uses different chord fingerings using the D and A string; however, these chords
 are rooted on the same position on the neck, and this tab sounds very close.)
