Chrome - Are there any keyboard shortcuts to arrange tabs on windows?

Scenario:
I hit CTRL+T to open a new tab, but I don't want it as the right-most tab, I want to slide it a few to the left.
Can I do this using just the keyboard or do I have to use the mouse?
I can't see a shortcut here: Windows keyboard shortcuts - Chrome Help
Something like CTRL+SHIFT+LEFT would work nicely.

@ahilsend, Weird, why would it work on Linux if it doesn't work on Windows?

After a while I got an answer to this. Essentially there aren't any built-in, but there are extensions that provides this functionality.
UPDATE AUGUST 2018:
I'm now using this chrome extension (recommended): Rearrange Tabs
This is the original one (not updated since 2015): Keyboard Shortcuts to Reorder Tabs
You need to reload all tabs after installing it or it won't work.
Happy days :)
