                     Tricks of the trade - Paolo Nutini
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Youriboss

I'm sorry if this tab is a little messy, but it's my first one ever. I just figured it
by ear, but i think it's quite good. Also, I don't really know the names of the chords,
if someone could tell me them in a comment, I can add them to the tab. So for now, I can 
guess.

( Don't know the names of these notes either, think of the piano)

Tuning: Low D - Low A - D - Fsharp - A - High D

D    (000000)
F#m  (444000)
G    (555000)
A    (777000)
E    (022100)

Intro: D, F#m, G, A

       (D)
Was it love or recognition that has
(F#m)
healed this man's condition
    (G)
I'm hoping and I'm wishing that
     (A)
this bird won't fly away
       (D)
We can see life hand in hand,
    (F#m)
the green, the blue, the rough, the sand
    (G)
And in our time and in our land
      (A)
we'll savor everyday

Chorus:
     (E)                         (D)
And oh, how our glory may fade,
(F#m)      (G)
   at least we've learned
     (G)                   (A)
some things along the way

     (D)
You took me from my bubble
         (F#m)
knowing my defense was weak
       (G)
And you sat there and you listened
     (A)
any time I chose to speak
     (D)
you gathered from my pleas to
          (F#m)
you that I am but a clown
      (G)                   (A)
And I fear only a hero can defeat
these demons now

Chorus:
    (E)                             (D)
And oh, how our glory may fade,
(F#m)       (G)
         at least we've learned some
(A)
tricks of trade

(D)  (F#m)  (G)   (A)

        (E)                         (F#m)
And as time shall inevitably move on,
             (G)
oh well, at least we'll have four strong
          (A)
legs to stand on
            (D)
To keep us alive...
