I Knew Prufrock Before He Got Famous - Frank Turner
---------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by James Oliver (jamesdoliver@googlemail.com)
I don't think the chords are quite this straight forward, and I'm yet to see Frank play
to know what he's actually doing. But for now, these chords work, and I shall update it
I have seen what is actually played. I decided to work out the chords because I have not
them anywhere on the internet, and that is a shame because "I Knew Prufrock..." is
Turner at his briliant best! Email me if you have any suggestions for changes to chords etc.
