Lyrics The Gaslight Anthem feat Bruce Springsteen - History Books
[Verse 1]
Bm A
What’s that you say?
G
I knew you when?
A Bm
You don’t look too much like my friend
A
Those history books
G
Filled up with crooks
A G
Stories that I don’t want to read again
[Pre-Chorus]
A Bm
I’ve tried to live
A G A
One thousand years from here
[Chorus]
D A Bm
When I think of it now
G D
It just brings me down
A G
When I think of you now
D A Bm
And when I think of it now
G D
It just brings me down
A G D G D Bm
When I think of you now
[Verse 2]
A
I’m keeping time
G
One day goes by
A Bm
I try to live till the next one
A
But these history books
G
Full of haunted looks
A G
From people I don’t want to see again
[Pre-Chorus]
A Bm
‘Cause I’ve learned to live
A G A
But they try to hold me here
[Chorus]
D A Bm

When I think of you now
[Bridge]

You just remind me of the
Bm G
Nights of smoke and dirty jokes
D A
Darkened rooms with lonely ghosts
Bm G
And they were beautiful some time ago
D A Bm
But time keeps rollin’ us on
[Guitar Solo]
