Carry This Picture Dashboard Confessional
This is by far, one of the better, lesser known Dashboard Confessional songs, and I was
to see no adequate chords for it. The majority of this is improvised, as Chris uses few
chords throughout the song.
Played in half-step-down tuning. The A7 Chord is played, from lowest string, to highest,
as opposed to 002020. Strumming pattern is down-down up-up, in syncopation (listen to
for further details)

kept in a lo[A7]cket
tucked in your co[D]ller

and m[G]eet me at quarter to [C]7

we'll head to the i[G7]nlet
and we'll share a b[A7]ottle th[D]ere
and co[G]lor the coast with your s[B]mile

and fo[G]llow me south of the big do[C]cks
they teather the b[A7]oats
the rich men re[D]vere
as so imp[G7]ortant[C]
they hire our fat[A7]hers to st[D]eer
and do[G]wn to the edge of the wa[C]ter
where we'll spill our g[A7]uts
and we'll name our fe[D]ars
i[G]'ll give you this pic[C]ture

but n[D]ow i bel[G]ieve
