This song was tabbed from the version posted on the Dashboard Confessional website. If you listen to that version you will find it very easy to follow the chord progressions. 


*I’m pretty certain all the chords are generally correct, there might be slight variations. This is a very good song and one of Chris’s few songs that is played in standard tuning.
