The Frames Friends and Foe Lyrics

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!
Here are the main chords:
us4
Intro: F#m11 A Asus4 A x2
(Verse 1)
Returning with the listless,
And staying close behind
And the arms that once held you have receded,
Over time
(Chorus)
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
(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
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
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
