This tab is based on TGA’s live performance of Biloxi Parish @ Rock am Ring 2011 (you

I’m not too sure about the small solo part after the first chorus, but the rest should 
be alright
Comments and corrections will be appreciated ;)


The Gaslight Anthem – Biloxi Parish

Bb   Bb
Bb   Bb   Gm   Gm   x2

          Bb
I've been fumbling with your heart strings
           Bb
and that's good enough for me
         Gm
And if I break the one you rouse,
       Gm
then I know I must be working
       Bb
Try it on for size my darling,
           Bb
see what a man you can make of me
         Gm
I will eventually haunt you
             Gm
but you'll eventually be my queen
            Eb
And I'll be with you through the dark,
               F
so that you do not go through the dark alone,

Bb            Bb
Gm            Gm
on your own

          Bb
I've been down Biloxi Parish
           Bb
and that's good enough for me
                Gm
I've found that nothing truly matters
         Gm
that you cannot find for free
           Bb
I love you more than I can tell you
             Bb
and when you pass through from this world
           Gm
I hope you ask to take me with you
          Gm
or that I won't have to wait too long
    Eb                                      F
But until then I'll be with you through the dark
     Eb                                      F
Yes, until then I'll be with you through the dark

(F)          Gm        Eb        Bb
Who else can say that about you, baby?
F            Gm        Eb       Bb
Who else can say that about you now?
F            Gm            Eb             Bb
Who else can take all your blood and your curses?
F       Gm            Eb       Bb              F
Nobody, I've seen you hanging around, seen you hanging around

Gm   Gm   Eb   Eb

  Bb
I ain't seen my home in half a year,
          Bb
I miss my mother and my friends
            Gm
Please tell Rita that I've been praying
             Gm
for all that trouble to finally end
         Bb
But when this whole thing is over
               Bb
and we land in Asbury's arms
         Gm
When the band don't quiet down
              Gm
and it's just you and me in the dark
            Eb                                       F
I won't say nothing cause that's how I've known your heart
            Eb                                       F
I won't say nothing cause that's how I've known your heart

(F)          Gm        Eb        Bb
Who else can say that about you, baby?
F            Gm        Eb       Bb
Who else can say that about you now?
F            Gm            Eb             Bb
Who else can take all your blood and your curses?
F       Gm            Eb       Bb
Nobody, I've seen you hanging around
F            Gm        Eb        Bb
Who else can say that about you, baby?
F            Gm        Eb       Bb
Who else can say that about you now?
F            Gm            Eb             Bb
Who else can take all your blood and your curses?
F       Gm            Eb       Bb              F
Nobody, I've seen you hanging around, seen you hanging around
