Here Comes My Man Ukulele

(ver. 1)
The Gaslight Anthem
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here Comes My Man - The Gaslight Anthem - Handwritten
Standard or whole step down tuning (DGCFAD)
(CAPO 3 for standard, CAPO 5 for whole step)
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 one:
               Am7                       G                            
And how much time do you think that we have?
      Fadd9                   C                       
If I wanted to I could start over again
         Am7                       G        
Let the good night decide who she wants me to find
          Fadd9                       C
And I'll never let you drop another tear in my eye


Chorus:
        C              Fadd9          C                     Am7
Singing oh sha la la, oh sha la la, listen honey, here comes my man
        C             Fadd9           C                     Am7      G G G G               
Singing oh sha la la, oh sha la la, listen honey, here comes my man


Verse two:
            Am7                  G
And all my life, I never had a chance 
          Fadd9                         C
Don't you think I knew about all your pretty girlfriends?
        Am7                     G
But I waited for you, gave you time to decide
         Fadd9               C
But you never saw it from anybody else's side


Verse three:
      Am7                        G
So I packed up my things and I faced up my doubts 
           Fadd9                 C
You know I think I will grow my hair back out
      Am7                        G
Nevermind what you think, nevermind what you like
              Fadd9                           C
I'll take it out to the streets for somebody else to admire


Chorus:
        C              Fadd9          C                     Am7
Singing oh sha la la, oh sha la la, listen honey, here comes my man
        C             Fadd9           C                     Am7      G G G G               
Singing oh sha la la, oh sha la la, listen honey, here comes my man


Middle eight:
       C                           Am7
Maybe time will tell you why I got so much hell to sell you
         Fadd9              
Please, please understand me
        C                  G
Oh you can't just dance around me
            C                           Am7 
Maybe your work will love you when I'm just not there to hold you 
             Fadd9                        
Maybe your pride can be your companion 
        Am7                   Fadd9                         
But I just won't be there to stand through it
             Am7            Fadd9            G G G G
Not one more minute will I stand through it   
G
You got me singing baby


Final chorus:
        C              Fadd9          C                     Am7
       oh sha la la, oh sha la la, listen honey, here comes my man
        C             Fadd9           C                     Am7                     
Singing oh sha la la, oh sha la la, listen honey, here comes my man
        C              Fadd9          C                     Am7
Singing oh sha la la, oh sha la la, listen honey, here comes my man
        C             Fadd9           C                     Am7                     
Singing oh sha la la, oh sha la la, listen honey, here comes my man
