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 D# A# G#
brian’s chords : Dm F C A#
capo iii : Am C G F

this is how i play the little riff

Am C Am C/G

staring at the sink of blood , and crushed veneer

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

G F
and i told you to be kind
C
and in the morning i’ll be with you

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

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
