American Slang The Gaslight Anthem
intro
C,A,G
Look what you [Am]started,
I seem to be [F]coming out of my [G]skin
Look what you?ve for[Am]gotten here
The bandages [F]just don?t keep me [G]in
And when it was [Am]over
I woke up a[F]lone [G]
And when it was [Am]over
I woke up a[F]lone [G]
Chorus:
And they c[Am]ut me to ribb[G]ons and taugh[F]t me to dri[C]ve
I got your n[Am]ame tatt[G]ooed ins[F]ide of m[C]y arm
I c[Am]alled for my f[G]ather but my f[F]ather had d[C]ied
While [F]you told me fortunes, in A[G]merican Sl[C]ang
Look at the [Am]damage,
the fortunes [F]came for the richer [G]men.
while we?re left with [Am]gallows,
waiting for us [F]liars to come down and [G]hang.
And when it was [Am]over
I woke up a[F]lone [G]
And when it was [Am]over
I woke up a[F]lone [G]
And they c[Am]ut me to ribb[G]ons and taugh[F]t me to dri[C]ve
I got your n[Am]ame tatt[G]ooed ins[F]ide of m[C]y arm
I c[Am]alled for my f[G]ather but my f[F]ather had d[C]ied
While [F]you told me fortunes, in A[G]merican Sl[C]ang
And here?s where we [Bm]died that t[A]ime last ye[G]ar,
And here?s where the an[Bm]gels and de[A]vils mee[G]t.
And you can [Bm]dance with the qu[A]een if you ne[G]ed,
And she will al[D]ways keep your ca[G]rds
Clo[A]se to her hea[D]rt oooh
So close to [G]her hear[A]t
before they tear you a[D]part
C,F,G
And they c[Am]ut me to ribb[G]ons and taugh[F]t me to dri[C]ve
I got your n[Am]ame tatt[G]ooed ins[F]ide of m[C]y arm
I c[Am]alled for my f[G]ather but my f[F]ather had d[C]ied
While [F]you told me fortunes, in A[G]merican Sl[C]ang
You told me for[F]tunes, in Ame[G]rican Sl[C]ang
