Nothing Without You

Biography:

Abel Makkonen Tesfaye, popularly known as The Weeknd, (born February 16, 1990 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada) is a Canadian R&B/pop/hip-hop singer. He has been referred to as the songbird of his generation and the best musical talent since Michael Jackson throughout his career.

The Weeknd gained widespread critical acclaim for his three mixtapes, House of Balloons, Thursday, and Echoes of Silence, which he later compiled to make a remastered, three-disc album titled Trilogy after signing his record deal with Republic.

Alternatives for this artist

Artist: The Weeknd
Song: Nothing Without You
Album: Starboy
Tabbed by: neuroxik
E-mail: neuroxik [-at] gmail [dot-] com

Tuning: Tune down 1/2 step (Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-eb)
Time Signature: 4/4
Tempo: 110 bpm

Chord names: All chord names are relative to position to visualize more
easily regardless of tuning half step down (Dbm notated as Em)

Notes: During the outro where the acoustic guitar kicks in, the
chords go up in barrés, but you can do it open chords if it's
easier for you. If you do want to play barrés though, I tabbed
the arpeggio at the bottom of the page for that riff.
