This is a fairly simple approximation of what Frank plays - fine for
playing for yourself, but not accurate enough for playing along.
Granty2k12 has done an excellent tab of this song, so head over there
if you're up for a slightly more complicated but accurate version ;)

G Sorting through my things the other day C G I found an old film camera that I thought I'd thrown away
But there it was covered in dust
C G I checked it and the film inside still had a few pictures left
So I just snapped it off and then
C G I found a place on the high street that could still develop them
I dropped them off and clean forgot,
C Em It wasn't until this morning that I picked the pictures up Am And there before my eyes in vivid colour C G Em Pictures of her stood smiling bold on the edge of a cliff by the sea Am On the south coast somewhere, C G C Wind in her hair, wrapped against the cold G There were many other pictures in the set, C G Most of them were taken in the first months after we met
When we were lovers like happy drunks
C G Stumbling for each other with each step, each breath in our lungs
Pictures of nights from soho bars
C G A weekend in the country when we borrowed my sister's car,
Her naked, serene on a hotel bed
C Em Smiling at the camera, her beauty like a word unsaid Am And there before my eyes on the glossy paper C G Em Quiet whispers of something I had lost or put aside Am For the longest time C G C The hope that I might find some kind of peace Em D Oh oh oh where did it go go go Em Ab7 I used to know exactly where I kept it Em D There right there under the stairs oh please Em Ab7 Darling I swear swear swear that's where I left it Em D Secret little things that you keep locked away Em Ab7 Em In a small wooden box that you barely even mention to yourself D Em It's not exactly hope, nothing quite as simple as youth Ab7 C Perhaps it's just a way of looking past the truth D We're all fading away Ab7 Em C The truth I can see in the very last frame of that long lost roll of film D Ab7 A picture of me, a young man holding a camera up to a mirror Em Am And there before my eyes in that old reflection C G Em A declaration bold: We won't stay gold
All that's left of her and the rest
Am C G C G Is a small locked box of undeveloped film and photographs
