Hello everyone! I was trying to figure out the new song Picture Frames which can
currently only be found on here => http://www.tape.tv/vid/138861 but it turned out to be rather
difficult especially when Luke plays some variations and I am hoping that someone who's
better at playing the guitar might figure it out with the help of my tab.
Here's what I've got so far. I'm happy for any sort of suggestions! Please leave them in
the comments below!
The Kooks - Picture frame
Chords:
Em [0 2 2 0 0 0] I know he sometimes doesn't only play Em but I can't figure out which
variations he's playing...help, anyone?
Em* [x 0 0 4 5 3]
Bm [x 2 4 4 3 2]
G#maj7 [4 x 5 5 7 7] Luke first slides down on the E-string to the 4th fret, then plays
[4 x 5 5 x x] and then strums again when he put his finger down on the 7th fret of the B-string
G [3 5 5 4 3 3]
G7 [3 2 0 0 0 1]

C F#* Bm
I didn't notice anything strange
G#maj7 G Em(+variations)
'Bout the picture in your picture frame
C F#* Bm
It was drawn of a fountain in your body
G#maj7 G
Bought for a fiver most probably
F#*
Didn't mean a lot to me
Am Em
You tell me that you'd never sell this
Am Em
That life itself is within this
Am Em
That the artist himself was beneath this
Dm G7
And I looked at the sky to worship the ground
C
And you never asked for nothing at all
G7 Am
But you asked me to come in from the cold
Em Dm Em* Dm G7
And to warm her bed as she folds me and unfolds me again
C F#* Bm
Time will make fools of us all
G#maj7 G Em(+variations)
It's time to find meaning or control
C F#* Bm
Every time we go out now she pretends
G#maj7 Em
Pretends we're not lovers just friends
F#*
And it gets to me
Am Em
She tells me the meaning of life is
Am Em
To be happy and to give up loss
Am Em
But you've never lost something you loved
Dm G7
I turn around how could I be angry at her?
C
When she never asked for nothing at all
G7 Am
But she asked me to come in from the cold
Em Dm Em* Dm Em* Dm
And to warm her bed as she folds me and unfolds me again and unfolds me again
G7 C
And I never asked for nothing at all
G7 Am
Even as the wolves glowered at my door
Em Dm Em* Dm Em* Dm
And I'll do my best to fold her and unfold her again and unfold her again
G7 C
And she never asked for nothing at all.
