Frank Turner - Recovery

0Verse:
A0                 E71
1Blacking in and out in a strange flat in East London
A2                             D3
2Somebody I don't really know just gave me something
    A4                       E75                                  A6    D7
3To help settle me down and to stop me from always thinking about you

         A8                               E79
6And you know you're life is heading in a questionable direction
            A10                                  D11
7When you're up for days with strangers and you can't remember anything
 A12                                  E713                                   A14    D15
8Except the way you sounded when you told me you didn't know what I should do

10Chorus:
E16             E717               D18                  E19
11     it's a long road up to recovery from here
   E720                   D21    A22   A23
12a long way back to the light
E24             E725               D26                  E27
13     it's a long road up to recovery from here
   E728                   D29    A30   A31
14a long way to making it right
15
16Verse:
          A32                            E733
17And so I wake up in the morning just like every other day
               A34                             D35
18And just like every boring blues song I get swallowed by the pain
       A36                           E737                          A38  D39
19So I fumble for your figure in the darkness just to make it go away
20
21
                A40                         E741
22But you're not lying there any longer and I know that that's my fault
           A42                                 D43
23So I've been pounding on the floor and I've been crawling up the walls
                  A44                        E745
24And I've been dipping in my darkness for serotonin
              A46                      D47
25boosters, cider and some kind of smelling salts
26
27Chorus:
E48             E749               D50                  E51
28     it's a long road up to recovery from here
   E752                   D53    A54   A55
29a long way back to the light
E56             E757               D58                  E59
30     it's a long road up to recovery from here
   E760                   D61    A62   A63
31a long way to making it right
32
33Bridge:
           F#m64                              D65                          A66
34So on the first night we met, you said well darling let's make a deal
   F#m67                    D68                                         A69
35If anybody ever asks us, let's just tell them that we met in jail
36
37
                F#m70                             D71
38And that's the story that I'm sticking to like a southern facing compass
       A72                                   E73
39But tonight I need to hear some truth if I'm ever getting through this
           F#m74                              D75
40Yeah, you once sent me a letter that said if you're lost at sea
         A76                                 E77
41Close your eyes and catch the tide my dear and only think of me
        G78                                  D79
42Well, darling now I'm was sinking I'm as lost as lost can be
           E80                           E781                           A82
43And I was hoping you could drag me up from down here towards my recovery

46Verse:
              A86                         E787
47If you could just give me a sign, just a subtle little glimmer
       A88                                      D89
48Some suggestion that you'd have me if I could only make me better
              A90                            E791                          A92      D93
49Then I would stand a little stronger as I walk a little taller all the time
50
51
           A94                       E795
52Because I know you are a cynic but I think I can convince you
             A96                            D97
53Yeah, cause broken people can get better if they really want to
       A98                           E799                       A100      D101
54Or at least that's what I have to tell myself if I am hoping to survive
55
56Chorus:
E102             E7103               D104                  E105
57     it's a long road up to recovery from here
   E7106                   D107    A108   A109
58a long way back to the light
E110             E7111               D112                  E113
59     it's a long road up to recovery from here
   E7114                   D115    A116   A117
60a long way to making it right
