Frank Turner - I Am Disappeared
*******
So, I spent a lot of spent spent seeing this youtube video of Frank Turner playing I Am Disappeared solo
(http://goo.gl/RnADKY) and came up with I believe to be a 100% correct tab, exactly like he plays on said
video.
Ver3 (which I used as a basis) was already very well done (cheers for that, unknown tabber!), but checking
the video I noticed some small discrepancies, which I thought I'd fix in a new tab. I also thought it would
be nice to have the lyrics, which I included and tried to adjust to the chords being played. I believe they
are mostly spot-on :)
I hope you enjoy, the song is great and sounds friggin perfect when played this way!
By the way, the strumming pattern is (according to the man himself in http://goo.gl/9pcgNh):
Down up down down up down down up
[Intro]
Am7 Fadd9 Gsus4
e|-3----3------3--|
B|-1----1------1--|
G|-0----0------0--|
D|-2----3------0--|
A|-x----x------x--|
E|-x----x------x--|
Am7 Fadd9 Gsus4 (x2)
[Verse] (same as Intro)
Gsus4 Am7
I keep having dreams
Fadd9 Gsus4 Am7
Of pioneers and pirate ships and Bob Dylan
Fadd9 Gsus4 Am7
Of people wrapped up tight in the things that will kill them
Fadd9 Gsus4 Am7
Of being trapped in a lift plunging straight to the bottom
Fadd9 Gsus4
Of open seas and ways of life we've forgotten
[Verse 2]
Right after the "we've forgotten" bit, start using full chords, ie. the thumb should now only block the
highest string (except in the G's, obviously):
Am7 Fadd9 Gsus4 G
e|-3----3------3------3-|
B|-1----1------1------0-|
G|-0----0------0------0-|
D|-2----3------0------0-|
A|-0----0------x------x-|
E|-x----x------3------3-|
Am7 Gsus4 Gsus4
I keep having dreams
Am7 Fadd9 Gsus4 Am7
Amy worked in a bar in Exeter I went back to her house and I slept beside her
Fadd9 Gsus4 Am7
She woke up screaming in the middle of the night terrified of her own insides
Fadd9 Gsus4 Am7
Dreams of pirate ships and Patty Hearst breaking through a life over-rehearsed
Fadd9 Gsus4 Am7
She can't remember which came first The house, the home, or the terrible thirst
Gsus4 G
She keeps having dreams
Chorus (played softly)
Fmaj7 Fadd9 Gsus4 G C
e|-3------3-----3------3---3-|
B|-1------1-----1------0---1-|
G|-2------0-----0------0---0-|
D|-3------3-----0------0---2-|
A|-x------x-----x------x---3-|
E|-x------x-----3------3---x-|
Fmaj7 Gsus4 G
And on the worst days
C Fmaj7 Fadd9 Fmaj7
When it feels like life weighs ten thousand tons
Gsus4 G C Fmaj7 Fadd9
She's got her cowboy boots and car keys on the bedstand so she can always run
Fmaj7 (getting stronger)
She can get up, shower, and in half an hour she'll be gone
Verse 3 (same as Verse 2)
I keep having dreams of things I need to do
And waking up but not following through
But it feels like I haven't slept at all
When I wake to a silence and she's facing the wall
Posters of Dylan and of Hemingway
An antique compass for a sailor's escape
She says you just can't live this way
And I close my eyes and I never say
I'm still having dreams
[Chorus]
And on the worst days
When it feels like life weighs ten thousand tons
I sleep with my passport
One eye on the back door
So I can always run
I can get up, shower, and in half an hour I'll be gone
[Outro 1]
Dm* Am C G5 Dm
e|-x----0---0---3---1-|
B|-3----1---1---3---3-|
G|-2----2---0---0---2-|
D|-3----2---2---0---0-|
A|-x----x---3---2---x-|
E|-x----x---3---3---x-|
(palm-mutted)
Dm* Am
And come morning
C
I am disappeared
G Dm*
Just an imprint on the bedsheets
(palm-mutted with some open chords here and there)
Am C
I'm by the roadside with my thumb out
G Dm*
A car pulls up, and Bob's driving
Am
So I climb in
C
We don't say a word
G Dm*
As we pull off, into the sunrise
(open chords)
Am C G
And these rivers of tarmac are like arteries across the country
Dm Am C G
We are blood cells alive in the bloodstream the beating heart of the country
Dm Am C G
We are electric pulses in the pathways of the sleeping soul of the country
[Outro 2]
Dm Am
e|-0---0--|
B|-6---0--|
G|-7---5--|
D|-0---7--|
A|-0---0--|
E|-x---x--|
Dm Am C
We are electric pulses

In the pathways of the sleeping soul of the country
Dm Am C
The sleeping soul of the country
Finish it off with:
