The Road

The Road
FRANK TURNER
Tabbed by guitaristu

First single off the new album. Enjoy.

Just standard open chords with different bassnotes illustrated by /.
Only exception is the /G# chord which I suspect Frank plays as:

/G#  : 40020x 

       Am          C		
to the east to the east
    G    /G#        Am 	
the road beneath my feet
Am/G   Am          C
to the west to the west
   G     /G#       Am
i havent got there yet
Am/B       C            G
and to the north to the north
Fmaj7       C

       Fmaj7        C
to the south to the south
   G       /G#     Am	
my time is running out

Am - bass F G A C B A

Am            Em                  Fmaj7            G

C                   G                Fmaj7          D/F#
of being trapped by circumstance and staying in one place
     Am            Em                Fmaj7             G
so i always keep a small bag full of clothes carefully stored
          C                G                  Fmaj7 E      Am
somewhere secret somewhere safe and somewhere close to the door

Am                      Em                      Fmaj7        G

               C           G               Fmaj7        D/F#
ive drunk with drifters in vienna and with punks in old dc
        Am            Em             Fmaj7     G
and ive driven across deserts driven by the irony
          C              G                     Fmaj7 E   Am
that only being shackled to the the road could ever i be free
