The Gaslight Anthem
Skinny Love
Here Comes My Man
I assume like all of Brian s songs he tunes it down a full step. I m gonna tab it
out standard tuning, with a Capo on the third, because that s where I found it easiest to play.
Standard Chords:
Brian s Chords:
Capo III:
This is how I play the little riff, it s not completely right, but sounds close.

Riff

Come on skinny love, just last the year
Pour a little salt, we were never here
My, my, my, my, my, my, my,
Staring at the sink of blood, and crushed veneer
Riff
I tell my love to wreck it all
Cut out all the ropes, and let me fall
My, my, my, my, my , my, my, my
Right in the moment, this order s tall
And I told you to be patient
And I told you to be fine
And I told you to be balanced
And I told you to be kind
And in the morning I ll be with you
But it will be a different kind
And I ll be holding all the tickets
And you ll be owning all the fines
Riff
Come on skinny love, what happened here
Suckle on the hope, in light brassieres
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Sullen load is full, so slow on the split
And I told you to be patient
And I told you to be fine
And I told you to be balanced
And I told you to be kind
And in the morning I ll be with you
But it will be a different kind
And now all your love is wasted
And then who in hell am I
And I m breaking at the britches
At the end of all your lines
Who will love you
Who will fight
Who will fall
Far behind
Riff
Come on skinny love, just last the year
Pour a little salt, we were never here
We were never here
