Chord Meet Me By The Rivers Edge by The Gaslight Anthem

thanks to thomas stuckelberger whose original tab served as the basis for this tab . i just put the chords i believe to be correct on his format . this sounds pretty perfect playing along with the song . keep in mind that they are playing different chords , or at least with a capo on a different fret , as they play with their guitars a full step down , so if you tuned down your guitar to play gaslight anthem , you would need to play this with the capo on the 5th . standard tuning capo 3rd fret intros and verses palm muted intro : Em see i’ve been here for 28 years . Bm pounding sweat beneath these wheels . C we tattooed lines beneath our skin . G D play chord let ring no surrender , my bobby jean . verse 1 : strum the other sections : Em see i’ve been here for 28 years . Bm pounding sweat beneath these wheels . C we tattooed lines beneath our skin . G D no surrender , my bobby jean . Em we’ve been burned by all our fears . Bm just from growing up around here . C our father’s factories marked our cars . G D while eden burned against the stars . chorus 1 : play a quick triplet stroke at each chord change , emphasize the following downstroke G and sally said , sally said . Em i can’t take no more regret . C it cut us deep , into our souls . G D came and climbed into our bed . G and sally said , sally said . Em meet me by the river’s edge . C we’re going to wash these sins away . G D or else we won’t come back again . G - Em - C - G - D verse 2 : Em you know i had these ballroom dreams . Bm that , as a child , came to me .
