"Nashville Tennessee"
Frank Turner
Campfire Rock EP
Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)
Capo 2nd fret
This tab (I believe) fills in gaps the other tab had, correcting a few things and
also adding the solo and outro tabs. This is a great song and really fun to play. Enjoy!

He does this interesting thing with the intro.
It starts as a G chord then you play a different chord with each up and down stroke.
Here it is.
v - downstroke ^ - upstroke

Intro: G** x4
G** G**
From the heart of the southern downs
C C* Am D G**
To the northeast London reservoirs
G** G**
From the start that landscaped my sound
C C* Am D G**
before I'd ever been to America
C D G G+ C
And if I knew anybody who played pedal steel guitar
C D G G+ C
I would get them in my band and then my band would get real far
C D G G+ B7
but I was raised in middle England, not in Nashville, Tennessee
C D
and the only person in my band is me
G** x2
G** G**
A simple scale on an old guitar
C C* Am D G**
and a punk rock sense of honesty
G** G**
I cannot fail when I've come this far
C C* Am D G**
with no knowledge of midwest geography
C D G G+ C
And if I knew anywhere where I could drive in a straight line
C D G G+ C
for hours through the desert I'd drive for hours at a time
C D G G+ B7
but I was raised in middle England, not in Nashville, Tennessee
C D
and the only person in this car is me
G**
Am C G
and yes I'm in 4/4 time
D Am
and yes I use cheap cheap rhymes
C G**
but I try to make it sound my own
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/f/frank-turner/232800.html ]
Am C G
and no I don't break new ground
D Am
many have traveled this sound
C
but I try to make it sound like home

G[hold]
Well I've been to Texas state
G[hold]
I didn't think it was all that fucking great
C D
and Nebraska is a bunch of songs
G A
All the way in Hampshire is where I belong
C D G G+ C
and I don't know anybody who plays pedal steel guitar
C D G G+ C
all the city roads are twisted and I do not own a car
C D G G+ B7
I was raised in middle England and not in Nashville Tennessee
C D
and the only thing I'm offering is me.
