---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Carve Your Heart Out Yourself - Dashboard Confessional ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Jobie Tuning:EAD#F#BD# First, let me start out by saying that although this is my first tab and it's not perfect, it's pretty dang close. That said, I was tired of looking for the tab to this song on the internet and never finding it, so I decided to tab it myself. It's pretty easy to figure out once you know the tuning. I have given the chords for the verses; figure out the strumming pattern on your own. A great song by a great band. Hope you like it.

During this part the lead does some sort of variations of: D#|-----3--1--3--| B |--0-----------| F#|--------------| D#|--------------| A |--------------| E |--------------| (I'm pretty sure there is no hammer-on or pull-off on this lead, but it's not that crucial. Play around with it to get the rest of the lead.)
