                   Here Comes My Man - The Gaslight Anthem
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tabbed by LesThanPaul
Standard Tuning

Capo 1

The other chord version on here was a little to high for my voice, so I
rearranged it a little. You can use this as a solo acoustic version, but it
works to play along with the song as well. And thanks to Torn_Asunder for
submitting the original version that I based this off.

Extra optional stuff:

These are just a couple things I like to do to add a little more to the song.

Notice how the intro riff looks a like it will fit nicely onto the A chord?
Well it does! When playing the A in the intro, you can instead play an
Asus4 A Asus2 A riff. This works in the verses throughout the song as well
and sounds pretty cool.

You can also play around with this concept in the chorus as I will diagram
below. Note for space reasons I will just write A2 for Asus2(x02200) and
A4 for Asus4 (x02230).
