FAME AND FORTUNE - The Libertines
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is how I play the chords used:
GmA#D#AmADA7
e|--3---6---6---5---5---5---5-------|
B|--3---6---8---5---5---7---5-------|
G|--3---7---8---5---6---7---6-------|
D|--5---8---8---7---7---7---5-------|
A|--5---8---6---7---7---5---7-------|
E|--3---6-------5---5-------5-------|
On the verses, I believe this is what Pete plays during the D#A#D#A# progressions:
D#A#
e|---8-8-8--8-8-8--8-8--6--------|
B|---8-8-8--8-8-8--8-8----6------|

Dublins down for a dubble bluff

Dipp your quill in your bleeding heart

Sign there and there and there
