Redemption Frank Turner
Frank Turner - Redemption
The intro/verse: The chord shapes are slightly ambiguous so I've ended up just
putting my best guess down, the odd open string might not be quite how Frank plays
it. Otherwise I think it's pretty much all here. Enjoy.

I was walking home to my house through the snow from the station
When Springsteen came clear in my headphones with a pertinent question
Oh is love really real and can any of us hope for redemption?
Or are we all merely biding our time down to the lonely conclusions
Darling let me take your hand as I talk you through this
How loneliness edged in to deep seated psychosis
Lying awake in crowded hotel rooms focused on tape hiss
And my failings laid clear on the ceiling I donā??t think I can do this
I donā??t think I can do this

I tried so hard to not turn into my father
But if I only ever skip out his choices will I ever choose better
Oh the sad truth is the grass it will always seem greener
So I left you alone in a restaurant in London in winter
Bm*
You deserve better

Is on my back
A*
And in my ears
[G]The sound comes clear and brings the awful truth
That I canā??t stand what Iā??ve done to you
Em (024000)
And itā??s written clear in my diary
Today should've been our anniversary
[G]And Iā??m far away and Iā??m far apart
And youā??re back home with a broken heart
Em (024000)
And love is real and I canā??t escape
I only ever have myself to [Bsus2]blame
These [Dsus2]failures shif[Asus2]t and shap[Em]e me in t[Dsus2]he night[G] [Bsus2]
Like a[Dsus2] fever I canā?[Asus2]?t break[Em] try [Dsus2]as I mig[G]ht[Bsus2]
Wake m[Dsus2]e darling I ne[Asus2]ed you t[Em]o take [Dsus2]me home[G]
But [Bsus2]I know
In the [Dsus2]end redem[Asus2]ption is [Em]mine a[Dsus2]nd mine alone
G* A* F#m* x2
G* A* F#m*
So if each of us is made up of a tally of mistakes and successes
Then that hour in the restaurant makes my score less than impressive
Oh each can be redeemed by the courage in which he confesses
So darling I miss you
Your music and your musk and your kisses
G*
I donā??t think I can do this
