the ballad of me and my friends – frank turner
capo 2
enjoy!

Em C
everybodys got themselves a plan .
G D
and everybody thinks theyll be the man , including the girls .
Em C
the musicians who lack the friends to form a band are singer – songwriters ,
G D
the rest of us are dj’s or official club photographers

Em C
and tonight i’m playin’ another nambucca show .
G D
yes i’m going through my phonebook , texting everyone i know .
Em C
and quite a few i don’t ( know ) whose numbers found their way into my phone .
G D
but they might come along anyway , you never really know .

G D Em
and none of this is going anywhere .
C D
and pretty soon well all be old
G D Em
and no one left alive will really care
C
about our glory days when we sold our souls

D – single strum
but if youre all about the destination
Em C
then take a fxxking flight
D Em D
were going nowhere slowly but were seeing all the sights

C G D
and were definitely going to hell
G D Em D . . .
but well have all the best stories to tell .

C G D
and were definitely going to hell
G D G
but well have all the best stories to tell .
