Hands Down Dashboard Confessional
i checked out some of the tabs for this song and all of them were almost right
but not quite, so i listened a lot and finally got them right...the
picking...phhfftt...forget it...i suck at picking i just strum over it..plus u
can get it from the others..:D i'm pretty sure that this is correct b/c it
sounds exactly like when he plays it. you have to listen yourself for the strum
pattern though...there's no way i'm putting that all on here. good luck............
key
pm - palm mute

Apm h
this air is blessed
C#m B E*

Epm h
this night is wild
Bpm h
so calm, so dull
Apm h
these hearts they race
C#m B E*
from self-control
Epm h
your legs are smooth
Bpm h
as they graze mine
Apm h
we're doing fine
we're doing nothing at all
chorus
[E]my hopes are so high that your kiss might [F#m]kill me
so wont you k[A]ill me
B C#m B (here's where he picks...so i just put the chords)
so i die happy
[E]my heart is yours to fill or [F#m]burst
to break or b[A]ury, or wear as je[B]welry
C#m B E*
whichever you prefer
V 2 (same chords as V1)
the words are hushed
lets not get busted
just lay entwined here
undiscovered
safe from the earth
and all it's stupid questions
hey did you get some
man that is so dumb
stay quiet, stay near, stay close
they can't hear
so we can get some
chorus
V3/bridge
FYI: this part is off-beat so i tried to put the chords all a little off
beat...and they're all hammered except when switching chords...ah...shoot...just
listen and figure it out... but it also sounds ok with it on beat...if u cant do
the off-beat thing... :D
[C#m] hands down this is the be[A]st date i can
ever[E] remember i'll alw[B]ays remember
the so[C#m]und of the stereo the di[A]m of the soft lights
the sc[E]ent of your hair that u twi[B]rled in your fingers
and the ti[C#m]me on the clock when we re[A]alized it's so late
and the wal[E]k that we shared tog[B]ether
and the str[C#m]eets were wet and the ga[A]te was locked
so i jum[E]ped it and le[B]t you in
and u sto[C#m]od at your door with your ha[A]nds on my waist
and you kis[E]sed me like you me[B]ant it
and i kn[C#m]ew that you mea[A]nt
that you me[E]ant it, that you me[B]ant it,
C#m A E (this is NOT hammered)
and i knew that you meant it, that you meant it
that's pretty much it...an awesome song...got Q's...kaetrouble_11@hotmail.com
but don't email me just to be stupid...or i'll get pissed...ty :D
