Absolute Tabs

(ver. 2)
The Fray

This tab is a modified version of this one -

So, the song has the same progression of chords almost all the way
through (verse 1, verse 2, chorus and outro are the same).

G#                  D#        C             A#
Ive seen this one before, the girl she gets away
G#        D#           C               A#
Everybody knows it but no one tries to stop it
          G#          D#               C              A#
Cause she barely even knows him but if she could see inside
 G#           D#           C        A#              (C)
Everything is quiet as she waits to tell him who she is


[Pre-Chorus]
    C  G#         D#   A#  C    G#      D#   A#

Tell me everything because I want to hear
D#

      G#         D#                   C                    A#
Its a kiss sits upon on her lips that waits for planes and battle ships
    G#            D#        C             A#
She wants to be a dancer and he has got a picture
       G#             D#          C              A#
On his wall and its a sailor in a new port every night

Yet man was born to trouble like sparks fly upwards innocent
