• Song:

    Misery

  • Artist:

    The Gaslight Anthem

First verse:
             A5
Step right up
                   F5
Get yourself wrecked
                    C5  
Come on whisper my name
         G5            F5      A5
I mean, since it's so late


Second verse:
                  F5
A thousand miles away
                           C5
I'll be creeping down your spine
     G5          A5
And making you wait
           F5     G5
Wait, and wait


Chorus:
                A5
And I hope you find
    F5             C5
A handsome young man
          G5          A5
Who can love you like I,
       F5           C5
Baby just like I can
          G5             A5
Who will take you out dancing
           F5         C5
While you waited me out
G5            C5          G5            C5      F5   G5
Making good use of the blues you've found


Third verse:
               A5
Go on, light it up
                F5
Let your hair down
                     C5
You deserve the wee hours
          G5         F5      G5
And the shivers downtown


Fourth verse:
               A5
Cus I'm waking up
                     F5
And you're stumbling home
                    C5
What, you think I'd forget?
    G5                  A5    G5        F5         G5
I remember each and every lonesome night alone


Chorus:
                A5
And I hope you find
    F5             C5
A handsome young man
          G5          A5
Who can love you like I,
     F5            C5
Baby just like I can
          G5            A5
Who will take you out dancing
            F5        C5
While you waited me out
G5            C5           G5           A5     F5   G5
Making good use of the blues you've found
                  C5
Making misery so proud

Bridge:
          A5           G5
And if I saw this much blood
          F5             C5
If it was all on your hands
         A5          G5             F5            C5
If the pills in my system came to call you up again
           C5          G5             F5
Would you buy me a drink, to calm down
           C5        G5            F5
Would you buy me a drink right now?


Chorus:
                A5          
And I hope you find
    F5            C5
A handsome young man
         G5           A5
Who can love you like I,
       F5          C5
Baby just like I can
         G5             A5
Who will take you out dancing
           F5        C5
While you waited me out
G5           A5           F5             C5      G5
Making good use of the blues you've found


Final chorus:
               A5
And I hope you find 
   F5             C5
a handsome young man
          G5          A5          F5          C5
Who can love you like I, baby, just like I can
         G5             A5                  F5        C5
Who will take you out dancing, while you waited me out
G5            C5          G5         A5                
Making good use of the blues you found
F5             C5          G5         A5       
Making good use of the blues you found
F5             C5          G5          A5   F5   G5 
Making good use of the blues in you now
                  C5     G5    A5
Making misery so proud
         F5         C5   G5     A5
Making misery so proud
