Turin Brakes are a modern folk pop duo comprising two friends Olly Knights and Gale Paridjanian, hailing from Balham, London, signed to Cooking Vinyl.
Turin Brakes have often been compared to many of the New Acoustic Movement's bands spawned in the late 90's such as Elbow, Starsailor, I Am Kloot (who were a support band for Turin Brakes on their Ether Song tour) and the Norwegian band the Kings of Convenience.
Their debut album "The Optimist LP" (2001) was nominated for the Mercury Prize that same year.

main riff is: D, D/F#, G
D/F# is the chord D with the root note of F# so:
E 2 B 3 G 2 D x A x E 2 use thumb to hit f# on the E string!
One, two, three, four D, D/F#, GD, D/F#, G Up above the clouds, it is always a blue sky D, D/F#, GD, D/F#, G Some will try to trick, but you just look them in the eyes D, D/F#, GD, D/F#, G What will they do, when the money runs dry? D, D/F#, GD, D/F#, G Where will they go, when the jet planes can't fly?
CGDD/F#, G When all is said and done I will love----] you---] (words sustained) CGDD/F#G When all is said and done I'll still love---] you----]
D, D/F#, G x2
Starring out at the stars, you feel helpless and so small Nothing but closed down bars, no one helps you when you fall One day this world will be returning to this prime We'll all be gone, there'll be no more roads to find
When all is said and done I will love you When all is said and done I'll still love you
Em The rain came again, EmDD/F#G Cleaning the dream and it always makes me cry---], oh my---]
Something about the rain, it sends memories through my veins Memories always stain, you can't wash them down the drain Where will I go when my broken body dies? And what will I know when I look up to the skies?
When all is said and done will you love me? (x2)
from G go:-
e 3 2 0 E 3 2 0 at the same time in the formation of G you you cant do that then just follow it on the E string not the little e string!
(Em same as before!) The rain came again, cleaning the dream And it always makes me cry, oh my
