[Intro]
 
Riff 1
Riff 2
 
[Verse]
 
        Dsus2(pm)
Well my broken battered body
       G6(pm)
In the days when I was younger
        Dsus2(pm)
Used to fix itself quick sharp
      G6(pm)
After every slip and stumble
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
          Dsus2               Aadd9                    Bm    Dadd9
But these days I'm collecting scars that don't seem to fade
G                Em7
Cuts and bruises that won't go away
 
Riff 2
Riff 2
 
 
[Verse]
  Dsus2(pm)
I used to think that I
            G6(pm)
Would never live past twenty five
         Dsus2(pm)
When you think like that each day
     G6(pm)
Is a gift if you survive
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
         Dsus2              Aadd9          Bm    Dadd9
But I survived too long for my side of the deal
         G                    Em7
But as I reach that shore I'm not sure how to feel
 
Riff 3
 
[Chorus]
 
G                   D
Cause I keep losing days
                    Am
That used to take a lifetime
                      G    D
In the blinking of an eye
 
G                D
All these small ideas
                Am
Are suddenly commitments
                   G  D  C
Greatness slips on by
                   G  D  C
Greatness slips on by

[Verse]
 
    Dsus2(pm)
I remember well the day
       G6(pm)
That I got my first tattoo
          Dsus2(pm)
I was so scared before and after
          G6(pm)
I was so proud when it was new
 
[Pre-Chorus]
          Dsus2              Aadd9       Bm    Dadd9
But these days I've gone and got me many more
G               Em7              G
Sometimes I get more when I get bored
        A7               D
One for every year I've lost
 
[Outro]
 
                    A
Cause I keep losing days
                    Em
That used to take a lifetime
                      D    A  D
In the blinking of an eye
 
                 A
All these small ideas
                Em
Are suddenly commitments
                   D  A  G
Greatness slips on by
                   D  A  G
Greatness slips on by
                   D  A  G
Greatness slips on by
                   Riff 4
Greatness slips on by

Watching a video of Frank playing this and the Dadd9 looks like he's playing x04230 instead of x04320. Definitely sounds better to me when playing it this way. Everything else bang on though, great tab

I've been meaning to correct this for a while now. Finally got around to it after finishing Polaroid Picture and The Way I Tend to Be (both of which are in the queue now). It should update in a day or so. Thanks for the kind words :)

Hey, no problem, dude! Thanks for the kind words. I've been meaning to change this for a while (this was from the debut of Losing Days on Vimeo and I've gradually edited it since it was released officially. I'll get around to it after The Way I Tend to Be (just putting on the finishing touches) and Polaroid Picture (again finishing touches) :)
