Tuning: Standard EADGBe

This is my first tab. It is quite sad that there aren' really a lot of Dashbard 
Confessional tabs, I encourage people to make more, cuz it's just and awsome band.

These Bones

B
Lay my bones
                    F#
At the feet of the ministry
                         E
I need the guilt and the company
                         F#
I need the chance to be judged

And then long forgotten


B
Lately I just can't shake it
F#
I count the days in seconds and minutes
E                                       F#
Hours and hours are subtle as shards of glass

In the skin


Abm
So lay with me
                E
I could use the company

You could help me ease

B
These bones are like maps and keys
           F#
Where they took their hits, and they felt those teeth
          Abm
There's a story hidden underneath
       E                     F#
If you dig in deep, will you find relief?
    B
For these bones shudder all night long
    F#
The hammer drops, another scar
    Abm
For these bones but I know
        E              F#
They're only my second home

B                            F#
Naked and under the cover of night
                      E
It's just a matter of time 'til I'm
                         F#
Counted and measured and filed

And then long forgotten

   B
Forgive my manner of speaking
F#
I know it's quick, but the clock is still ticking
     E                                            F#
And I've got a few words left burning holes on my tongue

I've been saving them

Abm
So lay with me
                E
I could use the company

You could help me ease

These bones are like maps and keys

For these bones but I know
        E              F#
They're only my second home
                     Abm          F#
No you won't go down alone
                     E            F#
No you won't go down alone
                     Abm          F#
No you won't go down alone
                     E
No you won't go down alone

For these bones
         
'Cause I know
         F#             B
That you won't go down alone
