Pete Doherty - can't stand me now acoustic

[bananafish16]

....the world kicked back a lot fucking harder........

GREAT!!!!

[CMPx92]

if anyone can point me in the right direction on how to play this song like this would be great. lol

[jamiroquaisfakengay]

@CMPx92 Intro: A B E E7 A7 C#m B A

Verse: E A C#m B A B

Chorus: E A E A

Basically that's all. Try and fit it with the lyrics. Hope it's useful.

[jamiroquaisfakengay]

@jamiroquaisfakengay Missed a bit. Before de chorus, what would be the part b, considering the "verse" part I put there "a", would be: E C#m E C#m B A B A F#m B, then chorus.

[EpiphoneEpiphany1]

we were light of pocket and rich of heart

[dingbat99]

Can anyone post the edited lyrics he uses in this version please, thanks!!

[QuiteShyt]

check out my bands new channel its just made so comment ,listen to the songs and add it and stuff please subscribe it if you want to.

[sakuranor]

i don't know why people say he can't sing! he sings quiet well!

[adamyoungxD2009]

@sakuranor haha :L he can but ive literally heard no one ever say that.. ;L

[sakuranor]

@adamyoungxD2009

yeah, i read somewhere else. probably haters.

[KatieIris21]

"I read every review, they all prefer you"

ugh, such a sad version, even the original is heartbreaking but this kills me..

Love this man so much.

[UnrulyTrousers]

@KatieIris21 Ahh Pete is amazing Alky Kate.

[KatieIris21]

@UnrulyTrousers

..lol what?

Who are you?! Loooool

[hazthefool]

i love this guy he is one of my musical heroes with mick jagger and jimmy page and hendrix and lennon but it kills me to see him destroying himself with drugs :( his life choice i guess. when ur 15 and one of your icons is a druggy u cant blame your parents for being a bit worried lol stupid guy

[alexxxth]

I remember seeing him playing this song properly, but I can play his songs better than him these days, poor bloke. Genius for coming up with this though, there was talent beneath all that brown.

[lexxuzz]

fuck you doherty !!!

[yougottaloveit100]

mint tune

[guatonico]

he's a nugget... people very often complain that the only bands that worth to listen to are the old arks from the 70's but if i ever had the chance to live three or four decades ago i'd still choose the current years I’ve been going through with all these masterpieces that includes doherty, carl barat, baby shambles, libertines, not to mention several others British bands.

[intenzez]

@guatonico I half-heartedly agree with what you open with, but your right, there are alot of great bands/artists going on right now.

[ItsPetedoherty]

Hey! Can anybody tell me the lyrics of this version please?? I don't understand a thing. Je ne comprends pas and j'ai fait la recherche sur l'intenet et je n'en trouve rien! Thank you for your help!

[ravedigga]

2:55....exstacys 1 hell of a drug

[jd666ify]

hes old enough to be my mate hahaha

[bebarelylegal]

This guy could have done all the wrong things in all the possible ways, but it's impossible to deny that he's a fucking genius.

[world4twins]

1:41 U R'SSS!

[slrflash722]

Hi!

can't stand me now ; there is something i can do!

what a voice so "human"

john

[mward1995]

You need to be really fucking stupid to spell can't, "carnt"! Even when Doherty is fucked out his brains on heroin he could still spell this. Great song though.

[adidasmalmo151]

my best mate's cousin (kristian marr) is best mates with pete and they are over germany now filming now. its cool to hear some of the storys they get up to. hes cool as fuck

[Vogelfrei777]

Fred Perry an braces.

Good ole skinhead style.

[MikylaMorosity]

0:47 dude! that picture! haha it reminds me of sex and amazing music ; two very good things in life.(':

I love you, Pete! <33 ahhhhhhhhhh :'DD Keep being amazing♥

[MrMoodysGarden18]

any chance you could send me this?

[manelsl29]

I read every review, they all prefer you

[GallagherFanatic]

It's sad to hear him preform it without Carl :'( It's very good though :)

[Duffield81791]

Anyone have tabs for this version?

[veskuina]

you don't need tabs, all you need is your ears

[MrDude1706]

@veskuina no this song is so awesome you do need tabs cause only hearing it is kinda not enough

[sunshineman46]

@veskuina You must be so good at guitar :3

[curlygirly78]

love this version great

[MikeWilkinson100]

can anyone send me the lyrics for this version please?

[MikeWilkinson100]

can anyone send me some lyrics for this? cheers

[Kablaine]

does anyone know the lyrics to this version? cheers

[MrMoodysGarden18]

beautiful.x

[Directionsforuse]

libs reunion at leeds will be unbelievable.

[LlamasOnAcid]

i love how he forgets the words at some points

[madmacska]

mmm

[quickshot2010]

if it wasn't for his drug addiction and stupid behaviour, doherty could've been a better role model for young musicians. I admire his lyrical quality, I just can't stand his behaviour. The libertines = Pete AND Carl.

[anatomyofluke]

I like it

[DanimalLawlz]

he doesn't sing carl's lyrics! looks like he's made his own for that part. WATCH MY VERSION

[spazmonkey92]

lyrics are different on this!

[mrfluffyx]

he is so shit! rock and roll my arse

[st3v3y1]

pete and carl - lennon and mcartney

[Bulltilt31]

@st3v3y1 idiot

[mikamadperson]

he sounds sad without carl...

[TonyBigTitsPulis]

@mikamadperson its a sad song you dick head, its not supposed to be happy

[dontfollowtherabbit]

@TonyBigTitsPulis You seem like an angry person

[TheDarkDresser]

2:55 ???!!!

[JoshMufc101]

2:32 i didn't know pete was a pimp LOL

[IntraSheep23]

I like this, acoustic punk is good

[itisoweng]

The first part of the intro is the bass from the original and in my opinion the origianl is allot better

[Westy91]

Can anyone please help me out with how to play the into, been trying to work it out for ages ! Much appreciated :)

[loguster22]

good but the original is a lot better

[manhattanishappening]

death @ 2:55

[themoogle09]

anyone know if theres a downloadable version of this anywhere?

[jacobplaisance]

get youtube downloader and you can download this from youtube

[FreewheelinLibertine]

@themoogle09 Yeah it's from the freewheelin' Pete doherty acoustic album. He had a whole bunch of releases between the libertines to his solo career of a bunch of songs.

[themoogle09]

ah thanks so much :)

[VicenzoTheButcher]

lyrics anyone?

[NfingaK]

2:35 more WTF

[Purefmlaradio]

Here's A tiny chat with Peter Doherty , just click:-)

[ISeeSickPpl]

2:58 WTF

[IpornographicmemoryI]

@ISeeSickPpl gorgeous....

[kackalacke66]

@ISeeSickPpl best comment on youtube thank you for that^^haha can't stop laughing haha xD

[xSatyrx666]

@ISeeSickPpl it's a Zombie

[baaaabybum]

yeahhr so brilliant

very upsetting that i can neverrr see the libertines live :(

[dpw81]

You can if you go to the Reading festival next year. Whoops, did I say that out loud?

[mvickers03]

Leeds is where its at! :)

[baaaabybum]

what exactly are the lyrics petes singing? .. ive looked em up but none of them are what hes singing. love itt.

[ToniKallioInMyHeart]

He's mixing it up a bit when playing live/acoustic. Simply love it, though.

[KidBk313]

when he sings: "I read every review... they all prefer you",

it's absolutely heartbreaking.

[HeleneForever0086]

JE L'AIME !

[TenWhoWereTaken]

I think I've found a version superior to the original.

Honestly, this is so beautiful and melancholy. You can feel the emotion this song holds for him.

[gaioladospobres]

is he on 2:56 ????????

[PennyILane]

god, I love 'can't stand me now', just says so much about their relationship, their freindship, especially when you listen to all the different versions out there.

[cenamovil]

anyone know what kind of guitars used pete? ..dont have idea! ..thanks!

[spike339]

epiphone coronet and casino alot.

[StopGallaTime]

he actually said they were reforming even if carl doesnt. He actually seemed interested in putting an advert in NME wanting Carl lookalikes!

[steebot]

It has to be done. They wrote the most powerful and intelligent songs of this generation. The changed the way bands are perceived.

[LeopoldSampsonite]

I dont care so much about tours as i do for them to come out with another album.

[samnninty]

well that just means you haven't experienced the magic of live music of a band that you love

[paddyt07]

But that's been said for a good two years now. I don't think it will ever happen ):

[mnaybour808]

yeh i heard something like that, glastonbury next year?? libertines??? maybe, we'll see i guess

[domb07]

i hope so, and leeeeds! but carl is doing solo work i think so it looks like he wants to put it off asnother year at least :./

[videompeg]

i like this version too

[frenchielcfc]

makes me laugh when people class carl as good a songwriter as pete. fucking different leuges. petes the bollocks

[lfavailablename]

does bollocks mean the best in your book ?

[frenchielcfc]

it does indeed

[Backalleypeprally]

@lfavailablename I think "the bollocks" is like a variation of "the shit".

[ChelsieeD08]

Love the guy (:, hes old enough to be my dad by he's my absoult hero and idol (:

I'm learning how to play the guitar so I can play his songs xD

xx

[yosi12]

...how old are you?

[triadmediums]

@ChelsieeD08 I just hope you don't pick up any of his other habits...

[naboba]

@ChelsieeD08 a guy who smokes crack is your hero? you're one sad little person...

this guy will be dead in a year or less from a drug over dose.

[qwertyuiopTanTan]

@naboba sometime i think the same, but i still love Doherty, beside i read horrible things about him, then i realized that is good things too. well anyway, i just want to tell you that looks that he is better now. i watched an interview from almost a year ago and he is so better. also Carl Barat just tweet a photo with him from 2 days ago. well that what i know...

[L1uck3Y]

@ChelsieeD08 dont leran it to play HIS songs...learn it to play songs that are inspired by him :) Xx

[fastlittlething]

yh 1.35 its scary

[libertinesrock06]

anyone notice how pete said " i read every review........and they all prefer you" during the song

gives me goosebumps lol

[soccerholic101]

yah i heared that! beautiful!

[TSJ92]

i also found that really hunting when i first listened to this version years ago..

[bchan89]

well i prefer doherty and i hope he reads these comments:)

[Catalina9201]

I LOVE MY FREE PETER

[TeamShoppie]

nah dude , it is not just a rumour that they are reforming , go onto the NME website and watch the 4 minute talk with pete in an interview , talks about a possible reunion in 2010. Him and carl are talking about it !

[TheCoveShorts]

pete has always tried but carl says its the last thing on his mind and said they arent even friends.

[adamb27]

fuck off, he rejected a reading and leeds comeback for millions , pete said it himself?

And there performing together again , people like you are lame

[paddypoohead]

Carl was the one who refused to get back together on the basis that it was about money, he said he wanted it to be about the music

[bchan89]

cant stand barat

[ScarletxCrimson]

Okay what? When did Carl ever say they weren't friends?

[domkH08]

aww =]

sums it up ?

[hibernianhbc]

if there was a chance of them reforming pete wldnt be doing a solo tour ... ad hate if they got back together it wld wreck what they made before reforming never works..whos reformed and really made it as big as they were?

[clingbag07]

Peter has to do a solo project as its is part of his record label deal that he does one as well as 2 albums one being shotters nation next one after his solo ;) weather they reform or not if they do it will be cracking sounds once again who is pete not to wrtie a good song? [=

[L1uck3Y]

@clingbag07 @hibernianhbc the libertines have reformed and are playing at leeds soon :) immenseness x

[SirEnte93]

@clingbag07 ''carnt stand me now'' :P

[lewie81]

@hibernianhbc the verve the first time they got back together bar that no one i can think of realie

[JJJAAMESS]

@hibernianhbc Dont go to Reading lol

[KoLMagrinoM83]

@hibernianhbc well thier back together lets see if it wrecks

[patchyone123]

@hibernianhbc Just saw them mate, Reading festival... EAT YOUR WORDS!!!

[jackbooth1992]

@hibernianhbc  never say never m8

[benvanbad]

how are they gonna reform when petes about to release his solo album and go on a solo tour

[twocrookedfingers]

Even if they did reform, it would not be on a permanent basics - a one off festival performance/tour most likely. Its kinda best that way, i think: Reforming completely would sort of destroy the legend of the Libertines? However it is my dying wish to see them perform..

[indiebum102]

the libertiens are reforming !

[twocrookedfingers]

Not exactly....

its not confirmed, apparently they were offered millions to headline reading this year. Pete was up for it 'cause he needed the money' but Carl declined, however Pete did sort of hint they might do a one off, for next festival season....

t'would be amazing...but dont want to get my hopes up, incase it falls through =/ still not even confirmed yet.

[nobbie3000]

cool pete needs help with the drugs but he is a talented guy and his lyrics all have meanin so if we all look deep into our own lifes you can understand truelly were he is coming form

[whatwouldghandido]

pete doesnt need help with thedrugs he moved to paris has come clean and his solo album is out 16th of march i think BUY IT

[thepotnoodle]

reeeeallly want these lyrics.

such a good version. musical genius

[70mozzer70]

Just so Jesus has John the Baptist so Morrissey has Doherty.

[BrilloBox2b]

Not perfectly right, so Jesus has John the Baptist so Doherty has Morissey

[upthebracket123]

this version is mint

[kmylo4]

[Frannyrobo]

<3 Pete and Carl!

[WorkingClassLize]

Goddamn.. I'm scared at 2:56 .. Shit son.

[Meersau5842]

[sansmatthew]

I meant the vocals are more distinct in this version. Google your mom jackass. Why do people like you even bother commenting on videos?

[sansmatthew]

great acoustic version. i caught more lyrics this way than listening to the album version.
