Casanova Baby by The Gaslight Anthem
Casanova Baby
Capo on 3rd fr.
The main chord pattern in this song is G Em7 D (without capo it is Bb Gm7 F, but I
to play it with a capo because it is easier and sounds better)
I would recommend to play the chords like this:
G (320033)
Em7 (022033)
Em (022000)
Dsus (xx0233)
Cadd9 (032033)
Intro:
G G Em7 Dsus (2x)
Verse:
G
Do you hear that whistle wail?
Em7 Dsus
Think the end is coming in?
G
But I'm a whole lot worse than well
Em7 Dsus
But I'm determined to slip this skin
G
And I know your dying for a good time
Em7 Dsus Cadd9
Dying to breath again
G Dsus
Oh my my, Virginia
Chorus:
(Dsus) G
We could run all night
Em7 Dsus
And dance upon the architecture
G
Come and take my hand
Em7 Dsus
I'll do the very best I can
Em Cadd9
Boy, I still wanna be your man
G Dsus Em Cadd9
I'm still these nervous feet and heart of stone
G Dsus (G)
Forget this dead mans town, I'll take you home
G G Em7 Dsus (2x)
Cadd9 Cadd9 Em7 Dsus (G)
Verse:
G
Do you hear me late at night?
Em7 Dsus
Always picking at the pieces
G
Sometimes nothing comes out right
Em7 Dsus
And nothing is relieving
G
But every slow mans song
Em7 Dsus Cadd9
Is a night I'd like to spend with you
G Dsus
Just twisting the night away
G
But it's past a quarter to three
Em7 Dsus
And it's past the midnight hour
G
Mustang Sally's left the building
Em7 Dsus
And we're so much worse without her
G
If I could put down this ol' hammer
Em7 Dsus Cadd9
I'd take you somewhere new
G Dsus
Oh my my, Virginia
Chorus:
(Dsus) G
We could run all night
Em7 Dsus
And dance upon the architecture
G
Come and take my hand
Em7 Dsus
I'll do the very best I can
Em Cadd9
Boy, I still wanna be your man
G Dsus Em Cadd9
I'm still these nervous feet and heart of stone
G Dsus (G)
Forget this dead mans town, I'll take you home
G G Em7 Dsus (3x)
Cadd9 Cadd9 G Dsus
Oh my my, Virginia
Chorus:
(Dsus) G
We could run all night
Em7 Dsus
And dance upon the architecture
G
Come and take my hand
Em7 Dsus
I'll do the very best I can
Em Cadd9
Boy, I still wanna be your man
G Dsus Em Cadd9
I'm still these nervous feet and heart of stone
G Dsus (G)
Forget this dead mans town, I'll take you home

I'll take you home

I'll take you home
