by Dashboard Confessional
From the album Dusk and Summer.
Tabbed by Carl C. (CCon2284@yahoo.com)


By request, Rooftops and Invitations, 
as you know I don't have a musical ear, 
so if there are chord changes missing please forgive me. 
It seems too simple to me, 
the KISS principle says to "keep it simple, stupid" so here it goes...
listen to the song to get the timings down.

INTRO:
A#add11 Gm  Abadd9 x4

VERSE 1:

A#add11				  Eb5
the first time you looked at her curves you were hooked
	A#add11				Eb5    Gm(barred) Abadd9   A#add11
and the glances you took, took hold of you and demanded that you stay
    				   Eb5
and sunk in their teeth, bit your heart and released
	A#add11			     Eb5	   Abadd9	 Gm(barred) Abadd9
such a charge that you need another touch, another taste, another fix

CHORUS:

A#add11			Eb5
she just might get you lost
	Cm7		      Eb5
and she just might leave you torn
	A#add11		      Eb5
but she just might save your soul
		      Gmadd11	 	Eb5
if she gets you when she gets you any closer

A#add11  Gm  Abadd9 x2

VERSE 2:

A#add11				D#5			  A#add11
she leads you up, points out skylines and stars, steeple chases in bars
		Eb5	Gm(barred) Abadd9	 Bbadd9
and took your keys and demanded that you stay
			Eb5
the city longs well for rooftops and invitations
A#add11					    Abadd9	   Gm(barred) Abadd9
all lace in secret places, she moves you to touch with her hands

CHORUS:

A#add11			Eb5
she just might get you lost
	Cm7		      Eb5
and she just might leave you torn
	A#add11		      Eb5
but she just might save your soul
		      Gmadd11	 	Eb5
if she gets you when she gets you any closer

BRIDGE:
Ab		Cm			  Ebsus2	    Cm	     Ab
under the cold sheet, where the welcomed touch of skin and skin will meet
	    Cm			 Ebsus2
out on the inside where a girls prize is at the tip of your tongue
Bb		      Ebsus2		  Csus2	   Ebsus2
where every move and each impulse brings clarity
Bb		      Ebsus2		  Csus2	   Ebsus2
to stay like this is everything you'll ever need

CHORUS:

A#add11			Eb5
she just might get you lost
	Cm7		      Eb5
and she just might leave you torn
	A#add11		      Eb5
but she just might save your soul
		      Gmadd11	 	Eb5
if she gets you when she gets you any closer
A#add11			Eb5
she just might get you lost
	Cm7		      Eb5
and she just might leave you torn
	A#add11		      Eb5
but she just might save your soul
		      Gmadd11	 	Eb5
if she gets you when she gets you any closer

OUTRO:

Abadd9	Gm
can you believe your eyes?...
