Vital signs - Frank Tuner Tabbed by Sean O'Reilly Frank's got this song on his website, You can all thank 'slghtlystoopid' ofr letting me know =] http://www.frank-turner.com/tabs/02VS.jpg I tabbed it out not knowing the high e was tuned to an F#, the tab's still right. Except the chords have different names now. Now, I'm not so sure what happens at the bridge.. Tuning: EADGBf# The main riff is based around a B chord I think f#|--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-| B |--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-| G |--4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-| D |--4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-2-| A |--2-2-0-2-2-2-2-0-2-| E |--------------------| The high e and b strings are left open for the F#, G#m and A, this is done by playing route of the chord with your thumb. F# (244322@1) G#m (133111@4) Af#|--0----0----0---| (x02220@1)B |--0----0----0---| G |--3----4----6---| D |--4----6----7---| A |--4----6----7---| E |--2----4----5---| Intro: B Riff Verse 1: B Riff This country is my canvas I leave paint trails as I go. EI'm (022100@1)painting a picture F# (244322@1) BRiff (x2444x@1)That you can only see from outer space. B Riff My bedroom is your sofa, I take my breakfast on the train. E (022100@1) F# (244322@1) G#m (133111@4)BRiff (x2444x@1)I'm tired and I'm dirty, and not a second goes to waste. Chorus: A (x02220@1) EI'll (022100@1)be dead but never dying, and I say that with a smile G#m (133111@4) F#It's (244322@1)just my way of trying to be aliive. Verse 3: B Riff Well I'll never get to grey hair And I'll never be in the black, E (022100@1) F# (244322@1) BRiff (x2444x@1)But I can tell stories that most can hardly dream. B Riff Dreaming is a luxury, Like stopping-staring and beauty sleep. EI'll (022100@1)stop when I'm finished, F# (244322@1) BRiff (x2444x@1)G#mAnd (133111@4)sleep is for the weak.

A (x02220@1) EHeaven's (022100@1)in the half light, and that's where I reside, G#mI (133111@4)got a whiskey and a wry smile BI (x2444x@1)check my vital signs. Bridge: F#And (244322@1)when I'm gone, AThe (x02220@1)world revolves, and life goes on, So mark no grave, A (x02220@1) G#m (133111@4)F# (244322@1) AForget (x02220@1)my name.
