This is my attempt at a tab of The Fray's new song "The Fighter". For this tab, I'm putting the chords in the body with annotations about when to play each riff. The riffs are at the bottom. (Start Riff 1) Intro: F Verse 1: CThe (x32010@1)lover held her love AmShe (x02210@1)begged him not to go CThe (x32010@1)fighter wrapped his gloves AmThe (x02210@1)fighter said I know, I know, I know GJust (320003@1)this one last time FI (133211@1)swear you'll still be mine AmBut (x02210@1)he can't promise much GHe (320003@1)goes for one last touch, one last touch (End Riff 1) (Start Riff 2) Chorus 1: F (133211@1) Am (x02210@1) GMaybe (320003@1)we were meant to be lonely, lonely F (133211@1) Am (x02210@1) GMaybe (320003@1)we were meant to be on our own F (133211@1) Am (x02210@1) GLoneliness (320003@1)has always been with me, with me F (133211@1) Am (x02210@1) GBut (320003@1)maybe we don't have to be all alone (End Riff 2) Break 1: C (Start Riff 3) Verse 2: CThe (x32010@1)fighter goes inside AmThe (x02210@1)doubt is creeping in CHe (x32010@1)swings with all his might AmAt (x02210@1)all that might have been FAnd (133211@1)she's in love with him GBut (320003@1)lovers don't always win AmHe (x02210@1)never even saw the swing CShe (x32010@1)calls out his name, calls his name (End Riff 3) (Start Riff 2) Chorus 1: F (133211@1) Am (x02210@1) GMaybe
