Thick As Thieves - Dashboard Confessional
tuning is in Eb (like most other DC songs) Capo 2
or you could just Capo 1 and leave it in standard
I'm not sure the bridge is accurate. Feel free to comment and help.
When he plays F in this song, it's Fsus, but any other variation will do
Fsus4: 1332XX or 133XXX
F: 133211, X3321X
Intro:
X2
Verse:
Would it kill you to breathe
Is it only 17 miles right between you and me?
I could make it if I have to
I don't break easily
Got my consol, thick as thieves
If there's a crime we'll keep it secret
But there's only trace amounts left in your blood
Pre-Chorus:
(You) may be a sinner
But you may be justified
Chorus:
Just keep your mouth shut
Keep your guard up
F G C (strum once then pause)
I swear I'll make it right
Verse:
Would it kill me to breathe?
Is it only 17 miles right between you and me?
I could fake it if I have to
I don't bend easily
Got my consol, thick as thieves
I have no crown to keep a secret
It was hers, it was not mine
Pre-Chorus:
Well I may be a sinner
But it wasn't me this time
Chorus:
Just keep your mouth shut
Keep your guard up
I swear I'll make it right
Bridge:
Listen to yourself
You have a hemorhage in your mouth
It won't stop bleeding
Chorus:
You may be a sinner
But I will hold the smoking gun
We'll get away clean
I'll keep your secrets til the grave has swallowed me
And I will never tell a tortured soul that's burning by my side
That I am a sinner
I Am A savior
I Am A lie
So keep your mouth shut
Keep your guard up
I swear I'll make it right
