Polaroid Picture Chords & Lyrics by Frank Turner
Polaroid Picture
guitar chords lyrics
This is just what I can gather from the live videos shown so far, Frank hasn't
actually released the song yet. :)
VERSE 1 (chords at the start are palm muted until chorus)
Em
Man, we used to be brothers
D G
Superheroes and warriors
E D
Cowboys and Indians, train drivers
G
Everything rolling through the endless summers
Em
But everything changes
D G
You got married, had children
Em
And I don't have your number
D G
The one I can remember is that place you used to live with your parents
CHORUS (open strumming)
C D Em G D
But in the stillness of the moment it takes for a Polaroid picture
To capture our faces forever and
C D Em
The world has turned a touch on its axis
G D
And the only thing certain is
That everything changes
VERSE 2 (PM)
Em
And they closed the Astoria
D G
At the end of last summer
Em
The place we earned our pedigrees
D
Scene of our victories
G
Sanctuary in the centre of London
Em
Now they're building a railway
D G
To track the vanquished to Versailles
Em
And the singalongs go on
D
But they're singing different songs
G
In rooms that we don't know on the other side of the city
CHORUS (open)
C D Em G D
But in the stillness of the moment it takes for a Polaroid picture
To capture our faces forever and
C D Em
The world has turned a touch on its axis
G D
And the only thing certain is
That everything changes
BRIDGE
C
So honey I just need a little time
Em D
To take a little time today
C Em
To savour all the triumphs and tragedies
D
Before they slip away
G (PM this section)
Before they slip away
G
Let go of the little distractions
D
Hold close to the ones that you love
C
Because we won't all be here this time next year
Em D
So while you can take a picture of us
G
Let go of the little distractions
D
Hold close to the ones that you love
C
Because we won't all be here this time next year
Em D
So while you can take a picture of us
(open)
G
Take a Polaroid picture
D
Take a Polaroid picture
C
Take a Polaroid picture
Em D
Take a Polaroid picture
G
Oh, please take a Polaroid picture
D
Take a Polaroid picture
C
Take a picture of us to show
Em D
We all want you to see where the time goes
CHORUS (open picking)
C D
So in the stillness of the moment
Em
Make sure you take a Polaroid picture
And keep it with you forever to
C D
Remind yourself that everything changes
But there was this one time
Man there was this one time
A7 (strummed, let ring)
When things were okay...
And that's it. Sorry for any mistakes but it sounds ok to me! :)
