Text File

Musician: Nathaniel Rateliff
Song: You Should Have Seen The Other Guy

(For technique go to youtube.com and search the song title there's a video of Nate 
and you can see the strumming and chords etc!)
 
Its not straightforward strumming; 
he plays a bass note and high note before each 
strum then anotherhigh note straight after,
and this pattern is constant throughout the verses.

Enjoy!! 



Intro C/F
 

Verse:

C                  F
We get out of this fight
F                 C
You gonna help me wrap my hands
C               F
Stitching up my eyes
F                  C
You know blood can blind


C                     F
And them was big old boys
F              C
Had fists like cinder and stone
C                        F  
I dodge a blade on the dime
F                   C
And they was out to cut my throat


Chorus:

        E7                            Am
It's a lot, It's a mark they're gonna press down on you
        E7                           Am                   G
It's a haze on my head, must've been hit too hard, off guard

(G)                  F  Am7 Dm
I think I'm gonna be it tonight
            F  Am7 Dm
If there's one way out
          F   Am7 Dm               C
It's to swing my way through the crowd


Vocal Break C/F


Verse:

 C                     F
Is there a blanket of pain
F           C  
That I can wrap up in
C                       F 
You've got a hold of me now
F             C
Hey that's a helluva grip
C                  F     
And I admit I was tanked
F                       C
And you could say I was pissing gin


Chorus

        E7                 Am
It's hard to see even if I close my eyes
        E7                     Am            G
It's fifteen degrees I'm gonna sleep outside


(G)       F  Am7 Dm
Cos I got no way to feel
    F  Am7 Dm 
and no way to ride
    F      Am7  Dm     C
I'm busted laid up and dry
