Arctic Monkeys - Reckless Serenade
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Tim van Kester

I tried to tab Reckless Serenade, a song by the Arctic Monkeys. Tabbing
chords was quite hard for me this time, so there will be some mistakes
there. Guitar one is Jamie, Alex is guitar two. I think I made that clear
in the tab. He plays the chords, but also plays some sort of solo near the
end of the song.

Topless models, doing semaphore
D A G D A G
Wave their flags as she walks by and get ignored.

Verse: 2

D A G D A G
Illuminations, on a rainy day
D A G
When she walks her footsteps sing
D A G
A reckless serenade


G Bm F#m G
I've been trying to figure out exactly what it is I need
Gm D
Call up to listen to the voice of reason
E A
And got the answering machine

Verse:2
D A G
The type of kisses
D A G
Where teeth collide
D A G
When she laughs the Heavens hum
D A G
A stun-gun lullaby

Verse:3
D A G
Those twinkling vixens
D A G
With the shining spiral eyes
D A G
Their hypnosis goes unnoticed
D A G
When she's walking by

G Bm F#m G
I've been trying to figure out exactly what it is I need
Gm D
Call up to listen to the voice of reason
E A
And got his answering machine

Bm D G Bb
I left my message but did he fuck back to me
Bm E
And now I'm stuck still wondering
G A D
How it's meant to be
