Not my tab. What do you guys think? Has two 5 star ratings, but doesn't sound right to me. Brian definitely doesn't use a capo either.

when i first heard it i immediatly thought "Am, F, C". but when i saw the sessions video of brian playing it he didn't seem to be playing in Am. but even if the key is wrong, i still think the progression is right, although some chords don't correspond to the right words.

So the key of the song is C minor. The version on UG uses a capo at the first fret to get to that key, and if you used a capo at the 3rd fret it becomes Am, F, C shapes. Brian Fallon tunes his guitar down a whole step, so Dm, Bb, F shapes cover the song.

With the down-tuned guitar the intro looks like (credit goes to thebiglebowski):
1|-----1---------------------------
2|-----3---------------------------
3|-----2---------------------------
4|-0-----------3-------------------
5|---------1-----------3-------3-3-
6|-----------------1-------1-------

1|---------------------------------
2|---------------------------------
3|---------2p0---0-----------------
4|-------------3---3---------------
5|---------------------3-----------
6|---------------------------------

Edit: The formatting messed it up a little bit. Copy and paste into Notepad to view it correct. Each - is an eighth note and they should line up correctly

I found the chords that were put up on ultimate guitar and used them for the cover I did in the 'Our Horrible Crowes Covers' thread. I thought that sounded ok (Bm, G, D, A) but I didnt play it with the record so it could be absolute bollocks.
