Gaslight
The Ugly Ducklings
D# Tuning
Intro: E F# G# C#m x 2
C#m C#m/C
She don't really want my love,
E F# A G#
But she won't set me free, she wants to hold me
C#m C#m/C
She's gonna make me blow my mind,
E F# A G#
If I don't get away, my Doctor told me
F#m
I'm walkin' around talkin' to myself
G#
I don't know where I'm at, half the time
F#m
I look at her picture, I see her face,
G#
I think of what she is, and I start cryin'
Chorus:
E F# G# C#m
Gaslight, that ought to be her name, 'cuz she's everybody's flame
E F# G# C#m
Gaslight, you can turn her on to the level you desire
E F# G# C#m
Gaslight, she'll light you up and set you a' fire
E F# G# C#m
Gaslight, you better be cool or you'll wind up a fool like me
There has got to be a way
To change that girl, you know how much I need her
She knows what she's got on me,
And she knows, I can't bring myself to leave her
I'm walkin' around talkin' to myself
I don't know where I'm at, half the time
I look at her picture, I see her face,
I think of what she is, and I start cryin'
Chorus x 2
Chords used:
C#m x46654
C#m/C x36654
E 022100
F# 244322
F#m 244222
G# 466544
A 577655
C#m* x44454
At the end of the chorus there is a quickly alternating C#m / C#m* x4.
You may want to try transposing up 3 semitones (start on Em) then the Em/D# is an easier 021000.
Either way, using barre chords sounds cooler.
