Artist: American Aquarium
Song: Betting Man
Tuning: Standard, Capo 2


after watching youtube several times, as well as seeing BJ live and talking to him in SuperFly's in San Marcos, Texas, this is what I have come up with

Intro: F, C, F, C, G

Listen to the song to know when to use the following hammer ons:
on the F chord, hammer on the G string with the first strum in verses (try not to hit the high E string)
on the C chord, hammer on the D string with the first strum in verses(try not to hit the high E string)
on the Am chord, hammer on the G string 
on the G chord, try not to hit the high E string


F                            C
well i drank myself to sleep again
F                     C 	      G
drank myself to sleep again last night
F                             C
and i woke up in a stranger's arms
F                          C               G
i woke up with a stranger's arms holding me tight
            Am      C
i thought of you and me
    G                    F
and what it is we used to be


Am
and if i was a betting man
    C                         G
i'd throw everything i had on you
         F
i ain't a betting man
                            C
god only knows I'm a betting man


F
you been running through my mind like a steamboat
                C
on a mississippi riverbed
F
you were running through my mind like a steamboat
                C
on a mississippi riverbed
G
those words you said


F
they cut me deep like a lock blade knife
                  C
they cut me to the bone
F
you can only cut a man so deep
                         C
'fore he's gonna wash his hands
G
i wash my hands
   Am    C
of you and me
    G                     F
and what it is we used to be


Am
and if i was a betting man
    C                        G
i'd throw everything i had on you
         F
i ain't a betting man
                             C
god only knows I'm a betting man


F
you been running through my mind like a steamboat
                C
on a mississippi riverbed
F
you were running through my mind like a steamboat
                C
on a mississippi riverbed
