Frank Turner - The Next Storm
Tabbed by guitaristu
Here be the chords. Add sus2s aplenty for the intro/verse riff.
[Intro] C F C
[Verse 1]
F
We had a difficult winter
We had rough few months
C
When the storms came in off the coast
It felt like they broke everything on us at once
F
It's easy enough to talk about blissed spirit
When you're not holding the roof up and knee deep in it
C
And the pictures and the papers got ruined by the rain
And we wondered if they'd ever get dry again
[Chorus]
Am G F
But I don't want spend the whole of my life indoors
Laying low, waiting on the next storm
But I don't want spend the whole of my life inside
Am G C
I wanna step out, and face the sunshine
[Solo] C
[Verse 2]
F
We lost faith in the omens
We lost faith in the gods
C
We just ended clutching at these empty rituals
Like gamblers clutching long odds
F
I don't care what the weatherman is saying
Because the last time that I saw him he was on his needs knees, he was praying
C
And the preachers and the scientists got soaked just the same
And they wondered if they'd ever get dry again
[Chorus]
Am G F
But I don't want spend the whole of my life indoors
Laying low, waiting on the next storm
But I don't want spend the whole of my life inside
I wanna step out, and face the sunshine
[Bridge]
C Dm*
So open the shutters, raise up the mast
Am G F
Rejoice, rebuild, the storm has passed
C Dm
Cast off the crutches, cut off the cast
Am G F
Rejoice, rebuild, the storm has passed (x2)
[Chorus]
Am G F
But I don't want spend the whole of my life indoors
Laying low, waiting on the next storm
But I don't want spend the whole of my life inside
I wanna step out, and face the sunshine
[Outro]
Am G F
I'm not gonna live the whole of my life indoors
I'm gonna step out, and face the next storm
-----
Dm* is some variant on a C slid up 2 frets - anybody know?

It's 'Blitz Spirit' rather than 'blissed spirit'

The Dm* chord you are talking about is basically a different phrasing of D chord. But if you want to get technical about it, it's either an Em11/A if you are fretting the E string [Like a C/G chord] or a Em9/D if you're muting it.

Great tab, man! Helped me learn the song. Just a few suggestions
I watched a few live videos of Frank and noticed the C and F shapes for the verse are as follows
(Whilst continuously playing a hammer on, on the G string, second fret, every other beat)
C - 3-3-2-0-1-0
F - 0-3-3-2-1-1
As you suggested adding the suses, you can do the solo around the C cord.
C chord then add the high e on the 3rd and then 1st frets before pulling off. When you pull of the high e on 1st, then it leaves the C, open without a fifth, which you can then hammer on to create the root C chord again, which makes it sound smooth when transitioning back to the verse.
The end of the song also goes
Am G F
I'm not gonna live the whole of my life indoors
Am G C
I'm gonna step out, and face the next storm
