• Song:

    Casanova Baby

  • Artist:

    The Gaslight Anthem

So here's a acoustic version of The Gaslight Anthem's '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)


However, you can also play the "standard chords" but I guess it sounds better with this 
have fun and enjoy. feel free to comment and/ or correct.
