Tattoos Chords

(ver. 1)
Frank Turner
This will be a bonus track on the new album 'Tape Deck Heart'

This hasn't been tabbed yet and it's quite simple so here it is -
although it's a bit sketchy at the moment, even Frank himself doesn't
seem to have grasped exactly how he wants it to go yet from the handful

G
    Oh it's payday, yes it's payday
            C                  G
I've got my paycheque from the man
                                          E7
Cause there's not so many jobs that I can get these days
           A7                D
With these marks all over my hands
              G5                         G7
But I'm gonna take that cheque I'm gonna head across the track
       C                  Cm
To the wrong side of this town
          G5                       E7
I'm gonna open the door, i'm gonna bask in the roar
          A7             D      G
Of that familiar buzzing needle sound

            D                        G5
Because the ink in my skin where the needle went in
    D                G5
How ever many years ago
         C                         Am
Has left marks on my arms and they say who I am
D7                G5
Everywhere that I go
     D                           G5
Some people have none, some have ones that they're ashamed of
D                            G5
Most people think that we're fools
     C                            G5           E7
Some people don't get it and some people don't care
    C             D           G
And some of us we have tattoos

2ND VERSE SAME CHORDS AS BEFORE

Oh it's fading, yes it's fading
Some of the things that I believed back then
Yes the skin has started sagging and the ink has started running
And I've got buddy tattoos with people who aren't my friends

Oh I've even got black X's from back when I was straight edge
So crack open a beer friends now and let's make a pledge
If we had the luck to live our lives a second time through
We'd be sure to get the same tattoos

CHORUS SAME WORDS AND CHORDS

BRIDGE/OUTRO

          C
We've got hearts for the lovers
            A7
And playing cards for the gamblers
           Em
Black Flag bars for the punks
        D
Sailing ships for the ramblers
          C
We've got skulls for the living
        A7
And the pain pays our dues
C             D       G
Some of us we have tattoos
   C             D       G
Oh some of us we have tattoos
   C             D       G      E7
Oh some of us we have tattoos
    C             D       G    D    G
Yes some of us we have tattoos
