JET LAG - Frank Turner
Tabbed by guitaristu

Now then as is fairly well documented the piano on the track is about 
a quarter tone down. But these are the chords. Where appropriate use 
Fmaj7 instead of F and throw in sus2/sus4 etc. I play the G
in the verses by sliding the Fsus2 up 2 frets. E/G#: 4x0400.

Intro: Fsus2

G Fsus2
I've heard it said the trick
Is to set your watch when you hit the plane
That way you can trick
The workings of a tired brain
But sometimes I feel sick
Sometimes I just feel so drained
And cut down to the quick
G E/G# Am
Longing for that voice again
       G
On the phone
           C          F
You always ask if I'm OK
Am              G             F
But it's not the same as being happy

C F G Em7
I travelled 40,000 miles last year
And I'm working on the same again
Am F G G7
I fell for 15 different girls
And nearly lost all of my friends
C F G Em7
Well I am jet set, jet lagged, jaded
You're always 16 hours ahead
Am F G                          Fmaj7
Quietly reminding me how I used to be

G Fsus2
Airports make me sad
I'm sure they shouldn't all be the same
But they're just landing pads
Boring tourist shopping chains
I remember times we had
Drinking while we wait for your plane
Feeling kinda bad
G E/G# Am F
Wondering which one of us has changed
G                 Em     F           Em G 
Cos we used to be slick, Supple young hips
Am                       F
romantic young kissable lips
G          Em     F           Em G 
Unbearably sharp, unbreakable heart
    Am             
With wide eyes and faith
     G                     C                F
That life could never pull apart if we were OK
Am             G                   F  Fsus2 
But distance kills the best of intentions
I never intended it to be this way

C F G Em7
I travelled 40,000 miles last year
And I'm working on the same again
Am F G G7
I fell for 15 different girls
And nearly lost all of my friends
C F G Em7
Oh I am jet set, jet lagged, jaded
You're always 16 hours ahead
Am F G G7
Quietly reminding me how I used to be
F G
I'm trying to remember how I used to be
Fmaj7
Used to be slick
