This tab (I believe) fills in gaps the other tab had, correcting a few things and 
also adding the solo and outro tabs. This is a great song and really fun to play. Enjoy!

He does this interesting thing with the intro. 
It starts as a G chord then you play a different chord with each up and down stroke. 
Here it is.

v - downstroke	^ - upstroke

Intro: G** x4

G**                            G**
From the heart of the southern downs
       C    C*   Am  D  G**
To the northeast London reservoirs
         G**                      G**
From the start that landscaped my sound
           C C* Am   D  G**
before I'd ever been to America

         C       D               G     G+    C      
And if I knew anybody who played pedal steel guitar
        C              D                G          G+        C
I would get them in my band and then my band would get real far
          C                D               G          G+       B7
but I was raised in middle England, not in Nashville, Tennessee
        C           D
and the only person in my band is me

G** x2

G**                             G**
A simple scale on an old guitar
      C    C*   Am    D  G**
and a punk rock sense of honesty
G**                               G**
I cannot fail when I've come this far
        C     C*     Am D    G**   
with no knowledge of midwest geography

         C        D                  G         G+        C
And if I knew anywhere where I could drive in a straight line
     C                D                    G     G+   C
for hours through the desert I'd drive for hours at a time
          C                D               G          G+       B7
but I was raised in middle England, not in Nashville, Tennessee 
        C           D        
and the only person in this car is me

G**
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/f/frank_turner/nashville_tennessee_tab.html ]
Am                 C   G
    and yes I'm in 4/4 time
                  D           Am
    and yes I use cheap cheap rhymes
                         C            G**
    but I try to make it sound my own

Am                 C         G
    and no I don't break new ground 
              D             Am
    many have traveled this sound
                         C		
    but I try to make it sound like home

          G[hold]
Well I've been to Texas state
         G[hold]
I didn't think it was all that fucking great
    C                      D
and Nebraska is a bunch of songs
               G                          A
All the way in Hampshire is where I belong
      C             D              G     G+    C
and I don't know anybody who plays pedal steel guitar
        C              D             G      G+    C
all the city roads are twisted and I do not own a car
      C                D                  G         G+     B7
I was raised in middle England and not in Nashville Tennessee
        C              D
and the only thing I'm offering is me.
