FIRE ESCAPE - Foster The People
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by:Bennett Kielbon
Tuning:Standard
This is my first attempt at creating a tab, I based it off of the video below so
it doesn't perfectly match the album version. Great fun song to play, enjoy!

[Intro/Verse]
Repeat 2x
I like to stick to walls
Observing conversations, lifting them when they fall
I am a fire escape, my spine's made of iron
My heart pumps that old red paint

Los Angeles I’ve been waiting for you
To pick yourself up and change

Its founded on lies ,and self made men
