1. Gimme The Sign
The song (and the whole album in fact) is recorded in C# standard tuning (whole guitar
tuned 3 half steps down from E standard). However, it's hardly worth the effort tuning
down when you can play most of the album in standard regardless. On this song the intro
does clearly require the lower tuning, but an approximate equivalent is given for standard
tuning. (If you're in C# tuning, the intro is just 5 and 0 on the bottom string back and forth).

C#m7 - x46454
E - 022100
B/D# - x6444x
F# - 244322
The main progression the guitar plays throughout this song is the following:
B Bsus2 C#m7 E
Where on the E the following is played:
e|-----------------|
B|-5-5-4-4-2-2-4-2-|
G|-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-|
D|-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|
A|-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|
E|-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|
However, with the bass moving underneath the overall harmony created is
B B/D# C#m7 E
So if you're playing on your own the 2nd progression works best, if you're playing with
a bassist the 1st is closer to the actual guitar part. I'll use the 2nd one throughout
this tab but obviously they are interchangeable in all instances.
Intro: Acoustic guitar plays main progression
Keys part (arr. for guitar, may be an octave higher, has a weird effect on it)

Verse:

Chorus:

(Bass plays D then C# back and forth)
Verse:
The guitar plays the same as in the intro, but the bass plays a progression underneath.
The following is the overall harmony:
A E/G#
In a dirty old bar, in a troubled town,
A E/G# D
where you watch your step, and you keep your eyes down
(D) A/C#* D A/C#* E
Friend of a friend, open my mind, it's about to turn, a lonely life
Pre-chorus:
(E) D
Over again
E D
Over and over and over and over again
On the 2nd pre-chorus (and all pre-choruses after) a 2nd guitar plays the following over
the last D:
e|---------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------|
D|-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-(b9)(b9)(b9)(b9)(b9)(b9)(b9)(b9)| Pattern 1

A|-(b9)-(b9)-(b9)-(b9)-(b9)-(b9)-(b9)-(b9)-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-11-|
E|-------------------------------------------------|
Chorus:
A E
You can't live on memories when memories fade,
Bm D5 A/C# D5 A/C#
This is your song so you get up, get up and
A E
Dance in the morning, a smile on your face,
Bm D5 A/C# D5 A/C# A
This is your song so you get up, get up and dance
(when going into the bridge, don't play the last A)
Bridge: (Same as the pre-chorus)
E D
I crack my back working for somewhere to stay
E D
And I'll never stop searching to find us a way
and Pattern 1 over the last D as in the pre-choruses
