The Way I Tend to Be  Frank Turner

Capo 4
For the rythm and hammer ons listen to the song. The Chords in the Chorus aren't
the same Frank Turner uses, but they sound very similar to them. The Bridge was
hard for me, so feel free to correct it :-) Sorry that I don't know the chords names...

Verse:
[C]Some mornings I pray for[G] evening,
[D]For the day to be [C]done.
[C]Some summer days I [G]hide away
[D]And pray for rain to [C]come.
[C]It turns out hell will [G]not be found
[D]Within the fires [C]below,
[C]But in making do and m[G]uddling through
D C - E** - D** - D***
When you've nowhere else to go.
Chorus
C* G* D*
But then I remember you,
C* G* D*
And the way you shine like truth in all you do.
C* G* D*
And if you remembered me,
C* G* D*
You could save me from the way I tend to be.
Intro 2x
Verse (same as verse 1)
Some days I wake up dazed my dear,
And I don't know where I am.
I've been running now so long I'm scared
I've forgotten how to stand.
I stand alone in airport bars
And gather thoughts to think:
That if all I had was one long road
It could drive a man to drink.
Chorus
But then I remember you,
And the way you shine like truth in all you do.
And if you remembered me,
You could save me from the way I tend to be.
Bridge (play muted and fast)
[Em7]Because I've [D/F#]said I [G]love you [C]so many times [D]that the [Em7]words kinda [D/F#]die in my
[G]Mouth.
[Em7]And I meant it [D/F#]each time [G]with each [C]beautiful [D]woman but [Em7]somehow it [D/F#]never
Works [G]out.
[Em7]You stood [D/F#]apart in my[G] calloused [C]heart, and you [D]taught me and [Em7]here's [D/F#]what I
[G]Learned:
[Em7]That love is [G]about the [C]all the changes you [D]make and [Em7]not [D/F#]just three small
[G]words.
Chorus
And then I catch myself
Catching your scent on someone else
In a crowded space
And it takes me somewhere I cannot quite place.
But then I remember you,
And the way you shine like truth in all you do.
And if you remembered me,
You could save me from the way I tend to be.
