Email: aparry491@btinternet.com
This is a B-Side from 'My Propeller' EP.
Tuning: Standard E
Please listen to the song for strum timing etc.
Personally the strumming is easy.
But singing at the same time is a challenge.
Alex Turner has really stepped up his skills in this track.

Made me kiss ya' with a whisper

Couldn't listen to tradition, grabbed me by the wrist to silently insist

[Chorus]
F Dm Am
And when i'm in the confines of crawling walls, you hold me in place
F Dm Am
The ripples on the ceiling the avenues, unsugared taste

Waste away the evening, the afternoon, the afternoons hat

Together we'll find something to direct some laughter at

Am
You stood shirtless and confident
F Dm Am (pausa)
Listenin' to the fools, tickling the rules

Their obsessions follow patterns
F Dm Am
Sat upon their stools, with their attitudes

And when i'm in the confines of crawling walls, you hold me in place

F Dm Am (ring)
Together we'll find something to direct some laughter at.
