Capo 4th fret
Steve McQueen:
D A b G D A I could take my time and I can speed you up. D A b G D A I could pull you in, you can't get enough. b G Let's go slip-sliding in my veins.
D A Cause this life is only chains, b G It's nothing like the colors in my dreams. D A I just wanted to be Steve McQueen. b G And my horses of English racing green, D A D You and me in British racing green.
(and so on - please correct the second and the fourth line of the verse - I´m not sure if its okay)
And it could hold us down,
They can break your pride.
And if it gets too rough, well you just climb inside.
Let's go slip-sliding in my veins.
Cause this life is only chains,
It's nothing like the colors in my dreams.
I just want to be Steve McQueen.
With my horses of English racing green,
You and me in British racing green.
And don't you know that you and I, we're never going home.
And since we don't wanna be alone,
Here we go. Sliding in my veins.
Cause this life is only chains,
It's nothing like the colors in my dreams.
And I just wanted to be Steve McQueen.
With my horses of English racing green,
You and me in British racing green.
Cause this life is always the same
It's nothing like the colors in our dreams.
We just wanted to be Steve McQueen.
With our horses of English racing green,
You and me in British racing green.
You and me, Steve McQueen.

I spent last night working the whole thing out properly. Just uploaded it to Ultimate Guitar Tabs but I can't post the link yet cos my account is too new here. You can search it on there (under Brian Fallon, not Gaslight), or I've pasted it below but in a code box so the formatting isn't messed up.
