Bridge:
these are just the chords...figure out the strum pattern
yourself.  I'm tired of typing.

db|-0---0---2---0
Db|-0---x---2---x
Db|-x---5---2---5
Db|-4---0---2---0
Ab|-0---x---2---x
Db|-0---5---2---5

I      tabs where they don't put the lyrics on it.
So here they are:
Verse I:
I'm missing your bed, I never sleep
Avoiding the spots where we'd have to speak
And this bottle of beast is taking me home

I'm cuddling close to blankets and sheets
You're not alone, And your not discreat
Make sure I know who's taking you home

I'm reading your notes over again
But there's not a word that I comprehend
Except where you signed it I will love you always and forever

Chorus:
And as for now Im gonna hear the saddest song
And sit alone and wonder
How you're making out
And as for me I wish that I was anywhere
With anyone...Making out

Verse II:
Im missing your laugh, how did it break
And when did your eyes begin to look fake
I hope you're as happy as you're pretending

Im cuddling close to blankets and sheets
And I am alone in my defeat
I wish I knew you were safely at home

Im missing you're bed, I never sleep
Avoiding the spots where we'd have to speak
And this bottle of beast is taking me home

Bridge:
Your hair, its everywhere
Screaming Infidelities are taking it's wear
Get this song at:

HOW TO TUNE:
e down 1 1/2 steps to db
B up 1 1/2 steps to db
G down 2 1/2 steps to Db
D down 1/2 step to Db
A down 1/2 step to Ab
E down 1 1/2 steps to Db

The ending is the only thing wrong with this one:
db|-4-5-2-5-|
db|-0-0-2-0-|
Db|-x-0-2-0-|
Db|-4-0-2-0-|
Ab|-0-x-2-x-|
Db|-0-5-2-5-|

This is the REAL tab. I asked Chris at a concert how he tuned
for this song and then I watched a video of him playing it to
get the fingering. This IS the real tab.

Tuning: Db-Ab-Db-Db-Db-db
/\
This string is going to ring \
a little if your strings aren't \This is the advice
a high gauge. /of Chris.

emo chick: just tune the high E string down a step and a half and the B string up a step and a half - this way they are both Db then tune the G and D strings to Db but an octave lower than the first two strings. tune the A string to Ab and then just drop the low E string down a step and a half. okay good luck

Could someone help me? i'm getting all confused on this tuning! i've been playing guitar for awhile, and i love this song, but i'm just really confused on how to tune down like that and stuff. so it would be super rad if someone could please give another emo chick a hand here!

OK now I get it...the top string is a HIGH Db (duh). guess i'll be keeping my original strings after all (where did I get that idea in the first place?)wow this is an amazing song!

When I tune my strings all the way down like that it gets the right note but the strings are so loose that it sounds all buzzy and stupid. How did they come up with this tuning. I guess I have to put four D strings on my guitar to play this song. DC is my new favorite band. They make me work.

leave the guy alone about the strumming. he gave you the harmony already......do some work on your own and open your ears its not that hard to hear.

All we care about is the strumming pattern, what is it?

What I've been looking for in a very long time is a good version of the tab "Screaming Infidelities" by Dashboard Confessional. I looked for it everywhere. Sure, I found one or two ,but they're extremely hard to tune (the tuning doesn't make sense to me),and it doesn't sound right when i even think i have the right tuning. If you have the slightest solution to this please e-mail me at alexalexmx@hotmail.com
