The Gaslight Anthem
Skinny Love
Here Comes My Man
I assume like all of Brian's songs he tunes it down a full step. I'm gonna' tab it
out standard tuning, with a Capo on the third, because that's where I found it easiest to play.
Standard Chords: Cm Eb Bb Ab
Brian's Chords: Dm F C Bb
Capo III: Am C G F
This is how I play the little riff, it's not completely right, but sounds close.

Come on skinny love, just last the year
Am C C/G
Pour a little salt, we were never here
Am C C/G
My, my, my, my, my, my, my,

I tell my love to wreck it all
Am C C/G
Cut out all the ropes, and let me fall
Am C C/G
My, my, my, my, my , my, my, my
G Am
Right in the moment, this order's tall
C
And I told you to be patient
G F
And I told you to be fine
C
And I told you to be balanced
G F
And I told you to be kind
C
And in the morning I'll be with you
G F
But it will be a different kind
C
And I'll be holding all the tickets
G F
And you'll be owning all the fines

Am C C/G
Come on skinny love, what happened here
Am C C/G
Suckle on the hope, in light brassieres
Am C C/G
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
G F
Sullen load is full, so slow on the split
C
And I told you to be patient
G F
And I told you to be fine
C
And I told you to be balanced
G F
And I told you to be kind
C
And in the morning I'll be with you
G F
But it will be a different kind
C
And now all your love is wasted
G F
And then who in hell am I
C
And I'm breaking at the britches
G F
At the end of all your lines
C
Who will love you
G F
Who will fight
C
Who will fall
G F
Far behind

We were never here
