Call it Fate, Call it Karma - The Strokes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by:Chris Warner

The song is beautiful playing 1st postion open chords, but
this is one way to play this with one guitar note for note
The only tricky chord I noticed is the fourth chord of the chorus D+,
an augmented fifth chord for you music theory lovers.
If you are playing without a capo the D+ chord is x5433x or
x54336
Tuning:E Capo 7th fret
The numbers are the actual fret numbers (i.e. 7 is an open note)
