Polaroid Picture Frank Turner
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)
Man, we used to be [Em]brothers
[D] Superheroes and [G]warriors
[E]Cowboys and Indians, [D]train drivers
[G]Everything rolling through the endless summers
But everything [Em]changes
[D] You got married, had children[G]
And I [Em]don't have your number
The [D]one I can remember is that [G]place you used to live with your parents
CHORUS (open strumming)
But in the [C]stillness of the [D]moment it [Em]takes for a [G]Polaroid [D]picture
To capture our faces forever and
The [C]world has turned a [D]touch on its [Em]axis
And the [G]only thing [D]certain is
That everything changes
VERSE 2 (PM)
And they closed the [Em]Astoria
[D] At the end of last [G]summer
The [Em]place we earned our pedigrees
[D]Scene of our victories
[G]Sanctuary in the centre of London
Now they're building a [Em]railway
[D] To track the vanquished to [G]Versailles
And the [Em]singalongs go on
But they're [D]singing different songs
In [G]rooms that we don't know on the other side of the city
CHORUS (open)
But in the [C]stillness of the [D]moment it [Em]takes for a [G]Polaroid [D]picture
To capture our faces forever and
The [C]world has turned a [D]touch on its [Em]axis
And the [G]only thing [D]certain is
That everything changes
BRIDGE
So honey I just [C]need a little time
To [Em]take a little time to[D]day
To [C]savour all the triumphs and [Em]tragedies
Before they slip a[D]way
G (PM this section)
Before they slip away
Let [G]go of the little distractions
Hold [D]close to the ones that you love
Because we [C]won't all be here this time next year
So while you [Em]can take a picture of [D]us
Let [G]go of the little distractions
Hold [D]close to the ones that you love
Because we [C]won't all be here this time next year
So while you [Em]can take a picture of [D]us
(open)
Take a Polaroid [G]picture
Take a Polaroid [D]picture
Take a Polaroid [C]picture
Take a Polaroid [Em]picture[D]
Oh, please take a Polaroid [G]picture
Take a Polaroid [D]picture
Take a picture of [C]us to show
We all want you to [Em]see where the [D]time goes
CHORUS (open picking)
So in the [C]stillness of the [D]moment
Make [Em]sure you take a Polaroid picture
And keep it with you forever to
[C]Remind yourself that [D]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! :)
