Turin Brakes - Pain Killer

Standard Tuning No Capo

Tabbed by Russ Reading

Chords  

A, G, E, D

It’s worth noting that in the verses the G and A are played higher up
the neck (“E” shape on 3rd and 5th Frets respectively).  From the video
it looks like how the guys play it!

I’m not too sure about the chorus other than it starts from E and 
ends on a D, so my interpretation of this is just what seems right.  

Feel free to experiment and see what sounds right.
Rhythm etc is best derived from the song, can’t describe it here!

Saw them live too and they are excellent!

That song then…

A                       G
Batten up the hatches here comes the cold 
A                        G
I can feel it creeping, its making me old 
A                                   G
You give me so much love that it blows my brains out 
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/turin_brakes/pain_killer_crd_ver_3.html ]
A                             G
You need something better than the bacon and eggs 
A                               G
The creaking in the walls and the banging on the bed 
A                                  G
You give me so much love that it blows my brains out 

CHORUS: 
E             G                   D
Summer rain, dripping down your face again 
E             G               D
Summer rain,praying someone feels the same 
E                      G            D
Take the painkiller,cycle on your bicycle 
E                        D
Leave all this misery behind 

A                  G
My love giving me head 
A                            G
Feeling really guilty breaking the bread 
A                            G
Losing my touch and I’m taking the world on 

(This sounds to drop so don’t play barred)
A                           G
So batten up the hatches here comes the cold 
A                            G
I can feel it creeping its makin me old 
A                                 G
You give me so much love that it blows my brains out 

CHORUS

(Barre again)
A        G
my love        (x4 )

Chorus 

E                       D
Leave all this misery behind    (x4)
