		   Reasons Not To Be An Idiot - Frank Turner
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Phil Conry*

Tuning: Standard EADGBe

after seeing frank play this live i realised that although notewise the other chords up 
here may be correct, he in fact plays the song with a capo meaning that to play it how 
was written you would need to be playing different chords relative to the capo

(if you get what i mean... probably not)

but anyway heres what i make of it, hope you like it
