                    Dusk and Summer - Dashboard Confessional

Ok, so there are a lot of tabs for this song that come close, but not quite.  They have 
right chords, just not the right positions.  I figured it out a while ago and then saw 
in concert last week.  After watching Chris play this song, I can tell you this is 100% accurate.

INTRO: C

VERSE 1:
               G/B
She smiled in a big way
                         D/F#
The way a girl like that smiles
                  C
When the world is hers. And she held your eyes
              G/B                 D/F#
Out in the breezeway, down by the shore
               C
In the lazy summer
                   G/B
And she pulled you in
                 D/F#
And she bit your lip
                   C
And she made you hers
           G/B
She looked deep into you as you lay together
D/F#                          C
Quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer


CHORUS:
           G        D/F#
But you’ve already lost
            G/B*   C2
But you’ve already lost
           G        D/F#
But you’ve already lost
              G/B*         C             G/B     D/F#     C
When you only had barely enough to hang on


VERSE 2:
                    G/B
And she combed your hair
                    D/F#
And she kissed your teeth
                  C
And she made you better than you’d been before
                  G/B
And she told you bad things
                           D/F#
that you wished you could change
              C
In the lazy summer
                   G/B
And she told you laughing
             D/F#
down to her core
                 C
So she would not cry and she lay in your lap
             G/B
as she said  “Nobody here can live forever
D/F#                         C
Quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer.”

...while you sing this:

She said “No one is alone the way you are alone.”
And you held her looser than you would’ve if you ever could’ve known
Some things tie your life together
With slender threads of things to treasure
Days like that should last and last and last

FINAL CHORUS:
          G        D/F#
But you’ve already lost
            G/B*    C2
But you’ve already lost
           G        D/F#
But you’ve already lost
              G/B*         C                 G/B     D/F#
When you only had barely enough of her to hang on
      C
Hang on
     G/B        D/F#
Hang on
     C
Hang on


That's it.  Email me with any questions.
