----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here Comes My Man - The Gaslight Anthem - Handwritten Standard or whole step down tuning (DGCFAD) Arranged by Jack Cookson (Torn_Asunder) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the way I saw Brian play it during Gaslight's set on Letterman show. It doesn't really matter if you tune down or not because his use of a capo is purely for the chord voicings - so if you don't wanna tune down, just stick a capo on 3rd.

[Verse 1]

               Em7                       D/A
And how much time do you think that we have?

      Cadd9                   G
If I wanted to I could start over again

         Em7                       D/A      
Let the good night decide who she wants me to find

          Cadd9                       G
And I'll never let you drop another tear in my eye
[Chorus]
        G              Cadd9          G                     Em7
Singing oh sha la la, oh sha la la, listen honey, here comes my man

        G             Cadd9           G                     Em7      D/A D/A D/A D/A
Singing oh sha la la, oh sha la la, listen honey, here comes my man
[Verse 2]
            Em7                  D/A
And all my life, I never had a chance 

          Cadd9                         G
Don't you think I knew about all your pretty girlfriends?

        Em7                     D/A
But I waited for you, gave you time to decide

         Cadd9               G
But you never saw it from anybody else's side
[Verse 3]
      Em7                        D/A
So I packed up my things and I faced up my doubts 

           Cadd9                 G
You know I think I will grow my hair back out

      Em7                        D/A
Nevermind what you think, nevermind what you like

              Cadd9                           G
I'll take it out to the streets for somebody else to admire
[Chorus]
        G              Cadd9          G                     Em7
Singing oh sha la la, oh sha la la, listen honey, here comes my man

        G             Cadd9           G                     Em7      D/A D/A D/A D/A
Singing oh sha la la, oh sha la la, listen honey, here comes my man
[Middle eight]
       G                           Em7
Maybe time will tell you why I got so much hell to sell you

         Cadd9              
Please, please understand me

        G                  D/A
Oh you can't just dance around me

            G                           Em7 
Maybe your work will love you when I'm just not there to hold you 

             Cadd9
Maybe your pride can be your companion 

        Em7                   Cadd9
But I just won't be there to stand through it

             Em7            Cadd9            D/A D/A D/A D/A
Not one more minute will I stand through it   

D/A
You got me singing baby
[Chorus]
        G              Cadd9          G                     Em7
       oh sha la la, oh sha la la, listen honey, here comes my man

        G             Cadd9           G                     Em7
Singing oh sha la la, oh sha la la, listen honey, here comes my man

        G              Cadd9          G                     Em7
Singing oh sha la la, oh sha la la, listen honey, here comes my man

        G             Cadd9           G                     Em7
Singing oh sha la la, oh sha la la, listen honey, here comes my man
