The Gaslight Anthem - Blue Dahlia chords
Highlighted Show chord diagrams
Hey everyone. This is my first tab, and hopefully you like it. It's relatively similar to the first version that was posted, I changed the Intro, Chorus, Pre-Chorus, and Outro chords to essentially match the verses. If you're like me, and have trouble singing in anything lower then Eb tuning then this version is for you. I play with the Capo on the 1st or 3rd fret, but you can move that around wherever you want. Tuning: Standard [EADGBe] G (320033) D (x00232) A (x02200) Cadd9 (x32033) Em7 (022033) Intro- G, D, G, D, G, Cadd9 -x3- G, D, G, D, G, Cadd9, D- Verse 1- Em7 What a hot and sultry summer, Cadd9 The steam just slides up off them streets G You got to stay inside and wait for the night, D And then come on over and see me Em7 There's a poetry about these streets, Cadd9 It just slips from your skin and goes right underneath G And mama always knew I'd meet a girl like you, D But me, I never believed Pre-Chorus- Em7 D Cadd9 Cause' I've been so lonely I can't imagine that kind of sympathy Em7 D Cadd9 Cause' I've been so lonely I can't imagine that kind of sympathy Chorus- G Where'd you get them scars? Em7 How blue is your heart? Cadd9 Is it sad enough to break? G D She said, "it's sad enough to break" G How long was your life? Em7 Was it cold and strange like mine? Cadd9 Are you man enough to lay here? G D G She said, "I'm man enough my baby, come see about me" [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-gaslight-anthem/324040.html ] Verse 2- Em7 Cadd9 I had a dream about you once, and I could barely see your form G And I met you between the wax and the needle, D In the words of my favorite song Em7 Cadd9 Your black hair was like a raven with your tan skin on the beach G D Your backdrop were the auroras and my sidekick was all this grief Em7 D Cadd9 I've been so low down, I'm almost level with the ground Chorus- G Where'd you get them scars? Em7 How blue is your heart? Cadd9 Is it sad enough to break? G D She said "it's sad enough to break" G How long was your life? Em7 Was it cold and strange like mine? Cadd9 Are you man enough to lay here? G D G She said, "I'm man enough my baby, come see about me" Bridge- G Em7 D Did they take you to the carnival to get locked up on a ride? G Me, I got caught up with the fortuen tellers Em7 Cadd9 And the ladies with the sleepy eyes Cadd9 D It took years my baby just to come clean, Em7 Cadd9 Every streetlight a reminder D Em7 And all those apologies Cadd9 D Em7 And the night was lonely next to me Cadd9 D G Even the night was lonely next to me Chorus- G Where'd you get them scars? Em7 How blue is your heart? Cadd9 Is it sad enough to break? G D She said "it's sad enough to break" G How long was your life? Em7 Was it cold and strange like mine? Cadd9 Are you man enough to lay here? G D G Em7 She said, "I'm man enough my baby, come see about me" Outro- Cadd9 G D Come see about me, ah-ah Em7 Cadd9 Come see about me, G D Come see about me, Em7 Cadd9 Come see about me, ah-ah G D Come see about me, ah-ah G\ Whenever you're lonely -End-
