Hello everyone! I was trying to figure out the new song Picture Frames which can
currently only be found on here => http://www.tape.tv/vid/138861 but it turned out to be rather
difficult especially when Luke plays some variations and I am hoping that someone who's
better at playing the guitar might figure it out with the help of my tab.
Here's what I've got so far. I'm happy for any sort of suggestions! Please leave them in
the comments below!
The Kooks - Picture frame
Chords:
Em [0 2 2 0 0 0] I know he sometimes doesn't only play Em but I can't figure out which
variations he's playing...help, anyone?
Em* [x 0 0 4 5 3]
Bm [x 2 4 4 3 2]
Abmaj7 [4 x 5 5 7 x] Luke first slides down on the E-string to the 4th fret, then plays
[4 x 5 5 x x] and then strums again when he put his finger down on the 7th fret of the B-string
G [3 5 5 4 3 3]
G* [3 0 0 0 0 3]
C [x 3 2 0 1 0]
F# [x 4 4 3 2 2] this sounds a little too pure to my ears, maybe he also plays some
variation of this chord?!
Am [0 0 2 2 1 0]
Dm [x 0 0 2 3 1]
Intro: (it definately needs some amending)
I didn't notice anything strange
Abmaj7 G Em(+variations)
'Bout the picture in your picture frame
It was drawn of a fountain in your body
Bought for a fiver it was probably
Em?
Didn't mean a lot to me
You tell me that you'd never sell this
That life itself is within this
That the artist himself was beneath this
Dm G*
And I looked at the sky to worship the ground
And you never asked for nothing at all
G* Am
But you asked me to come in from the cold
Em*
And to warm her bed as she folds me and unfolds me again
Time will make fools of us all
Abmaj7 G Em(+variations)
It's time to find meaning or control
Every time we go out now she pretends
Abmaj7 ??????
Pretends we're not lovers just friends
Em?
And it gets to me
She tells me the meaning of life is
To be happy and to give up loss
But you've never lost something you loved
Dm G*
I turn around how could I be angry at her?
When she never asked for nothing at all
G* Am
But she asked me to come in from the cold
Em Dm Em* Dm Em* Dm
And to warm her bed as she folds me and unfolds me again and unfolds me again
G* C
And I never asked for nothing at all
G* Am
Even as the wolves glowered at my door
Em Dm Em* Dm Em* Dm
And I'll do my best to fold her and unfold her again and unfold her again
G* C
And she never asked for nothing at all.
