1930 The Gaslight Anthem

[Verse]
[Am]Give me mercy and a minute n[F]ow,
I'ma bleed a little poison o[C]ut,
I'ma cry a little river d[G]own,
Then I'm setting this whole thing on f[Am]ire.
And I'm burning up the night she d[F]ied,
I'm putting every last picture as[C]ide,
I'm gonna say what I need to s[G]ay,
In my very last letter to y[Am]ou.
Cause you always made it cl[F]ear,
Said you'd never be my p[C]ain.
So here's to you and your br[G]ight baby blues,
And just a pause to cool the refr[Am]ain.
And you said you were satisf[F]ied,
That this body just weighted the t[C]ide.
And that you missed him sometimes, but you s[G]aid
it's alright, It's just a whole lot harder al[Am]one.
[Interlude]
Am G F (x3)
[G]
[Cborus]
But [C]I, I wish you knew her n[G]ow,
She's a better side of me [Am]now.
And I'm doing the best I c[F]an,
It's what you'da wanted.[C]
And I see like you were t[G]here,
And I know just how you'd s[Am]mile,
Mary you looked just li[F]ke,
It was 1930 that n[F]ight.
[Verse]
[Am]But here the days will eat you al[F]ive,
But I won't give in ton[C]ight.
You said it's not worth my t[G]ime,
And not to regard them.[Am]
And not to settle just for piece of m[F]ind,
I could wait it out all ni[C]ght.
If I just keep breathing[G]
[Am]....But Mary I found the s[F]ound,
And if this heart keeps pouring it o[C]ut
The glory hasn't come, and it's p[G]robably gonna fade,
Like a tattoo that hides the s[Am]hame.
And the reasons always f[F]ade,
And the pain gives out some d[C]ay,
So I'm saying my goodbyes to your d[G]eep blue eyes,
Cause I don't know how to [Am]say[G] [F]
Stay still in the p[Am]ain,[G] [F]
"Stay still in the p[Am]ain.[G]"[F] [G]
[Cborus]
But [C]I, I wish you knew her n[G]ow,
She's a better side of me [Am]now.
And I'm doing the best I c[F]an,
It's what you'da wanted.[C]
And I see like you were t[G]here,
And I know just how you'd s[Am]mile,
Mary you looked just li[F]ke,
It was 1930 that n[F]ight.
[Interlude]

[Bridge]
And if I rec[C]all the l[G]ast thing you s[Am]aid to me,
Before it broke [C]up, [G]
before it took you from [F]me.
[Outro]
You said I l[C]ove you m[G]ore than the s[Am]tars in the sky,
But your n[C]a--aa--a[G]me just es[F]capes me tonight.
You said I l[C]ove you m[G]ore than the s[Am]tars in the sky,
But your n[C]a--aa--a[G]me just es[F]capes me tonight. [C]
