Alright, here's HTSAL.. These are pretty much the chords, and granted I'm doing this
after watching their acoustic performance on VH1.. So, these are just the chords Dave
plays. Basically he just finger picks within the chords in this performance.. When they
play it live, it's much more complicated so don't even ask me how he does that. Note..
this is not 100 percent accurate, so don't be too upset

I decided I wanted to do a tab so I transposed the piano part in the beginning so we can
play it. It's a truly great song just like most of the other songs by The Fray.

Song : How To Save A Life
Artist : The Fray
---------
TAB Date: 04.07.2007
By : Matthew Lynam
Contact : wallgod[ampersand]hotmail[period]com
NOTES : All chords and fret positions are relative to CAPO 3rd fret. The rhythm guitar chords
are written out for the sake of simplicity, regardless of the fact that most of this
song is constructed of piano, bass, lead guitar, and drums.
LEGEND :
{ } = half mute (note is played then muted immediately)
< > = heavy emphasis (the most recognizable note)
[ ] = medium emphasis (typically the 2nd most audible note)
( ) = light emphasis (a note only heard from reverb or echo)

i tabbed this song at like 2 in the morning so forgive me if im wrong.
when i was listening to the song to tab it, i think i picked up the harmony instead, so
me know if i did. it still goes well with the song anyways.
this song goes in a pattern, its just the verses and the chorus
im not going to write out the specific strumming but its basically:
down down up ; up down up
..simple enough
just listen to the damn song if u cant get it

Capo 3 standard tuning
Chords (relative to capo)
G:320033
Dsus4/Em:x20233
Bm7:020232
Bm:224432 ( if you can't play the barre chord than a xxx432 sounds alright too, or just
a Bm7)
First tab, so sorry for all my mistakes.
You don't necessarily have to pick the intro and verses, strumming works fine too, his
tab is for those of you who were looking to pick it out. If you are uncomfortable with
finger picking you can pick just the lowest note played at any time and get a similar
affect, the only exception to this is the riff which you don't see until after the bridge/3rd
verse. In that case hit the highest given note. I think it would sound really good with
two gutiars playing, so if you end up teying that, could you leave a comment and tell me
how that works out?

The Fray
How To Save A Life
Tabbed by: Josh
ok, i saw the fray in concert in july when they toured with weezer and ben folds. At
time, no one knew who they were. Right now, still no one knows who they are. Im out to
that, because they are really good and need to be heard. Alright, the Fray arent even
on this site yet, so I decided just to do this little piano intro to get the train movin,
to speak...
it sounds like its in the key of Bb, so play around with picking the chords...

i was just trying to find an easy way to play this song using the piano intro on guitar
the chords during the chorus and this is what i came up with its not really how the real
is played but it works if you are just playing and singing it without the piano or yeah whatever

This is my first tab. It sounds a little different to the actual version but I played it
a school concert and everyone loved it so hopefully you will too.
You can play this with the capo in either the 1st or 2nd fret. Whichever you want. The
stay the same just play them in relation to wherever you’re putting the capo!

This is a pretty simple way of playing this song and duplicating the sound of the piano
a guitar. Once you get the main gist of it, it mostly repeats. The other tabs I've seen
really make too much sense or are fragmented so I hope everyone can enjoy this one.
