Friends And Foe

Text File

This is one of my favourite Frames songs from their gorgeous album 
"For the Birds" and when I looked online there was no tab available, 
so the guitar player in me had to learn it the old fashioned way.  
For too long I have relied upon other people to tab songs that I 
want to play. Now it's high time I did it myself.  

I looked at live performances of Glen playing this song by himself.  
The song is a rather simple one but with a deeply beautiful melody that 
Glen sings with absolute conviction.  This tab is as close as I possibly 
can get to how Glen plays it.  If you have corrections of your own, feel
free to let me know.  Cheers & GRA MOR!

Intro:  F#m11  A   Asus4  A   x2

(Verse 1)
F#m11			   A  Asus4  A   
Returning with the listless,  
F#m11		       A Asus4  A
And staying close behind
F#m11			A  Asus4 A      E           
And the arms that once held you have receded, 
      F#m11
Over time

(Chorus)
	  Asus4        A        
And the little love I had 
    Asus4               A
For all my friends and foe
	 Asus4              A              Asus4   E         
And the little lines we've drawn between us all have 
       F#m11
Taken hold

(Verse 2 - same chords as Verse 1)
In the early morning walking, 
And the pressure in the night
And the walls that held you with us have fallen 
Out of sight

	  Asus4        A        
And the little love I had 
    Asus4               A
For all my friends and foe
	 Asus4              A              Asus4   E         
And the little lines we've drawn between us all have 
       F#m11
Taken hold
	  Asus4        A        
And the little love I had 
   Asus4               A
For all the friends I know 
	  Asus4         A     Asus4           E	        A  
And the little time we got to share was worth it after all

Instrumental: F#m11  A  Asus4  A  x3   E  F#m11

(Verse 3 - chords same as Verse 1 & 2)
Now we work it out in silence, 
And the subplots to the end
And it's falling out of favour, 
You've seen me where I am

And the little love I had for all my friends and foe
And the little lines we've drawn between us all have taken hold
And the little love I had for all the friends I know
And the little time we got to share was worth it after all
