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.

G G Em7 Dsus (2x)
Verse:
G
Do you hear that whistle wail?
Em7 Dsus
Think the end is coming in?
G
But I'm a whole lot worse than well
Em7 Dsus
But I'm determined to slip this skin
G
And I know your dying for a good time
Em7 Dsus Cadd9
Dying to breath again
G Dsus
Oh my my, Virginia

I'll do the very best I can

Boy, I still wanna be your man

Do you hear me late at night?
Em7 Dsus
Always picking at the pieces
G
Sometimes nothing comes out right
Em7 Dsus
And nothing is relieving
G
But every slow mans song
Em7 Dsus Cadd9
Is a night I'd like to spend with you
G Dsus
Just twisting the night away
G
But it's past a quarter to three
Em7 Dsus
And it's past the midnight hour
G
Mustang Sally's left the building
Em7 Dsus
And we're so much worse without her
G
If I could put down this ol' hammer
Em7 Dsus Cadd9
I'd take you somewhere new
G Dsus
Oh my my, Virginia

(Dsus) G
We could run all night

great tab, but the lyric is "worse for wear"
Yea, swarley is right... But still, fantastic job. (PS, not only does the capo sound better, that's the way Brian plays it, so there's no reason to play it in Bb. That's an ugly key on guitar anyway.) Great job!
