    Dashboard Confession

im not sure exactly how accurate this is beacuse i figured it out by ear. but if
you're wanting to grab ur acoustic and play it for a girl, it'll definitely do.

Tuning: U NEED A CAPO!!f, b-flat,e-flat,a-flat,c, f (if ur tuned in standrd half-step
down, like chris usually plays in, then put a capo on the second fret.)otherwise, u
have to risk breaking ur strings. plus if you tune it, subtract two from every number
int the tab

2nd intro, verse, pre-chorus, chorus, intro,choru

you can work different variations of the notes in the chorus. there's a lot of room
to add in whatever. make sure to work with your volume. the intro and verse should be
soft, crescendo in the pre-chorus on the last note, chorus loud ans strong, and the end
part you'd better be playing so hard your strings snap[. thank for you for viewing my
first tab. cody W.
