Here Comes My Man
guitar chords lyrics
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.
