Artist: Dashboard Confessional
[Tune guitar down 1/2 step--Eb [Ab] [Db] [Gb] [Bb] eb]
**Verse 1** (lead-in: [G] [G] [G] [F#m])
I'm [A]missing you bad, [E]I never sleep.
A[F#m]voiding the spots where [E]we'd have to speak.
And this [F#m]bottle of beast is [A]taking me [D]home. [G] [G] [G] [F#m]
I'm [A]cuddling close to [E]blankets and sheets,
But [F#m]you're not alone, and [A]you're not discrete.
[F#m]Make sure I know who's [A]taking me [D]home. [G] [G] [G] [F#m]
I'm [A]reading your note [E]over again,
And [F#m]there's not a word that [E]I comprehend,
[F#m]Except where you signed it "I [A]will love you always[B] and forever."
[**BRIDGE**]
E--2-3-5--5-3-2--0-2-3-2-0-2--3--3--3-2---0--2--0-0-5-
B---------------------------------------3-------------
[**CHORUS**]
Well [F#m]as for now I'm gonna hear the [D]saddest songs,
And [F#m]sit alone and [D]wonder, how you're [E]making out.
But [F#m]as for me, I wish that I was [Am]anywhere,
With [A]anyone, [D]making out...
**Verse 2** ([G] [G] [G] [F#m])
I'm [F#m]missing your laugh, [A]how did it break'
And [F#m]when did your eyes be[A]gin to look fake'
I [F#m]hope you're as happy as [D]you're pretending. [G] [G] [G] [F#m]
I'm [F#m]cuddling close to [A]blankets and sheets.
[F#m]I am alone [A]in my defeat,
[F#m]I wish I knew we were [D]safely at home. [G] [G] [G] [F#m]
I'm [F#m]missing you bad, [A]I never sleep.
A[F#m]voiding the spots where [Am]we'd have to speak.
And this [F#m]bottle of beast is [D]taking me home.
[**BRIDGE**]
**Chorus**
[**OUTRO**]
[E] Your [D]hair, it's [E]every[D]where. [F#m]Screaming infi[D]delities and [F#m]taking its [D]wear.
[E] Your [D]hair, it's [E]every[D]where. [F#m]Screaming infi[D]delities and [F#m]taking its [D]wear.
[and then when the singing gets up into that castrati range the 3rd time:]
[A] Your hair, it's [G]every[A]where!! [G]Screaming infi[A]delities and [G]taking its [D]wear.
[And to close the song:]
[E] Your [D]hair, it's [E]every[D]where. [F#m]Screaming infi[D]delities and [F#m]taking its [D]wear.
Notes: Wherever "G G G F#m" is indicated, you can just play those notes on the top
string of the guitar instead of playing the whole chord.
Also, the tab for the bridge is approximate--generally it puts the right notes in the
right places but listen to the track to get it 100% correct.
Fingerings:
D=200232 (use your thumb on the sixth string; this is technically a D/F# chord, but
Dashboard loves getting the most out of their six guitar strings so use this chord to
better reflect that)
[E]=022100
[F#m]=244222
G=320033/355433 (use the barre G to transition from G to F#m)
Am=x02210/577555 (use the barre chords if you're able to use all 6 strings,
A=x02220/577655 as Dashboard is fond of doing)
[B]=x24442/799877
Good luck!
