The Fire And Thud by Arctic Monkeys

This is a fairly rare song by Arctic Monkeys and I'm not sure if many people
would have heard it but its a class song anyhow.

It's my first tab so you may have to listen to the song a few times the timings.

STANDARD TUNING

Main VERSE: ("you showed me my tomorrow...")

 |----2-x-222222--(4)(5)(4)---|
 |----2-x-555555-- 4-5-4------|

it carries on in this pattern until the very end where:

("And your hiding in my soup..")

 |----2-2-|
 |----2-5-|
 |----5-4-|
 |----4-4-|
 |----4-2-|
 |-0--2-x-|   Alex Turner (the writer presumably, although it could be a cover), swaps between

these chords with the lyrics.

It then resumes the Main Verse "the teasing of the fire be followed by the thud.."


"In the jostling crowd..."

 |----2-|
 |----2-|
 |----5-|
 |----4-|
 |----4-|
 |----2-|  ...and the photobooth's a liar.


Assumes Main Verse pattern again.


and it ends "if its *something* in their temples" with the chord.

 |----2-|
 |----2-|
 |----5-|
 |----4-|
 |----4-|
 |----2-|


and thats about it!
