Long Night by Guster is a more advanced guitar song played in the key of E with a capo on the 1st fret. It uses the chords E, Bm, A, C#m, G#m and B. Use the transpose and diagram tools on this page to change the key, see each shape, or simplify the chords.
This riff is played on the glock, but it can easily be played on the guitar as well.
(Tabbing is relative to capo, so (10) refers to what is, in actually, the 11th fret
(just play a B-flat, and we'll be good).
