------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE FARMER AND HIS GUN - Charlie Simpson ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Mono Email: bowdowntothemono@hotmail.co.uk Tuning: Standard (EADGBe) Right, I got asked to do this tab by someone, and I also think this is probably the best song of the When We Were Lions EP, so I thought I should give it a shot. Funny twiddly guitar fills are included. CAPO ON 6 (All chords and frets are relative to the capo) Intro: C C/B Am7 F x2 Verse: C C/B Am7 F C C/B F F x2 Spoken like a young man trying to get himself on the wheel My feet are forwards but I think I'm going backwards I'm still So far away from you I called my brothers on the phone just to say goodbye Cause I don't need another reason not to survive on my own I'm moving on from here B|-6p5----| G|----5s2-| Pre-chorus: F F C G x2 Then I realize that I'll be on my own tonight Shadows fold out like blankets on the ground Chorus: C Em F F x4 C G Run run rabbit run Just don't get caught out by the farmer and his gun Well hide hide rabbit hide It's best to lose yourself before you ever lose your pride Fills in Chorus (you can work out where they are): e|-1p0----|--------| B|----3-1-|----1---| G|--------|-0h2--2-| Fill into Intro: G|------0-| D|-0h2h5--| Intro again Verse again Spoken like a true man trying to make his way through the fields My back is heavy and my heart is feeling empty but still I'm so far away from you There's no use complaining to myself I made these shoes to walk in And they'll walk until the end Pre-Chorus And then I realise that I will dream of you tonight Shadows fold out like blankets on the ground Chorus Run run rabbit run Just don't get caught out by the farmer and his gun Well hide hide rabbit hide It's best to lose yourself before you ever lose your pride Harmonica solo (Intro) Pre-chorus Then I realize that I will dream of you tonight Shadows fold out like blankets on the ground Chorus x2 (Finish on F) Run run rabbit run Just don't get caught out by the farmer and his gun Well hide hide rabbit hide It's best to lose yourself before you ever lose your pride Just never lose your pride Just never lose your pride Oh, never lose your pride THAR YOU GO. If people want, I'll tab out the harmonica solos too, but they sound pretty easy to me.
