High Lonesome chords by The Gaslight Anthem

Hey here's an acoustic version of High Lonesome.
have fun and feel free to comment. I saw Brian Fallon playing this one somewhere on
Should be pretty much accurate.

Brian tuned everything half step down, but still sounds good with standard tuning.

C   (032010)
C 2  (032013) -----------------> in the bridge

G   (320033) ------------------| in the verse & chorus
G 2  (320013) ------------------| in the intro & bridge
G/E  (055410) ------------------| before chorus

F/E  (033210)
Dm  (xx0231)

Am7  (002213) ------------------| in the intro & verse
Am  (002210) ------------------| in the chorus

Verse:
         Am7
So the ambulances came
        Dm           G
They took your pulse and packed up your things
        Am7
And the papers read
     C             G
Some boys forget what the heart it brings
             Am7
And the pounding in the street
     Dm         G
Was your heart in four four time
          Am7
And the taste of defeat
     C    G       F/E   G/E
Was was never too far from your mind


Chorus:

   Am       F/E        C       G
And Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
     Am      F/E         C     G
I always kinda sorta wished I looked like Elvis
     Am           F/E       C       G
And in my head there's all these classic cars and outlaw cowboy bands
     Am      F/E       C   G
I always kinda sorta wish I'm someone else


Verse:
      Am7
So gravity came
       Dm             G
And stole the temple that the schoolboys praised
           Am7
And the crowd shuffled in
        C
You're getting drinks for the same boys
  G           Am7
Who once bought you everything
              Dm
And the patter on the bar
         G
Was just this one time
       Am7
The patter on the bar
       C
Was just this one night
G      F/E  G/E
Only to get by


Chorus:

   Am       F/E        C       G
And Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
     Am      F/E         C     G
I always kinda sorta wished I looked like Elvis
     Am           F/E       C       G
And in my head there's all these classic cars and outlaw cowboy bands
     Am      F/E       C   G
I always kinda sorta wish I'm someone else


Bridge:


Am7             C 2   G 2
  There were Southern accents
      Am7         C 2  G 2
  On the radio  As I drove home
      Am7
  And at night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
      C 2          G 2
  It's a pretty good song Maybe you know the rest
Am7      C 2      G
  Maybe you know the rest


Chorus:

   Am       F/E        C       G
And Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
     Am      F/E         C     G
I always kinda sorta wished I looked like Elvis
     Am           F/E       C       G
And in my head there's all these classic cars and outlaw cowboy bands
     Am      F/E       C   G
I always kinda sorta wish I'm someone else


     Am        F/E
When our boots they hit the ground    {
      C         G     {
They made a high and lonesome sound   { 3x


     Am        F/E
When our boots they hit the ground
      C    G        Am
They made a high, a high and lonesome sound
