So Long, So Long Lyrics

So Long, So Long ?? Dashboard Confessional
Great song. Wasn??t sure how accurate some of the other tabs were so I tried figuring it
for myself. It might not be perfect but I think it??s pretty accurate. Any comments let
know
Chord Shapes
Moderately.
Intro ?? G (1 bar) Em (1/2 bar) D(1/2 bar) x 2
(repeat strumming pattern for 1st verse)
Hand out the window, floating on air,
Just a flick of the wrist and I??m waving you goodbye
Drive past the lifeguard stand, where I??d sit around
Waiting for you to remember
As I drive
How the girls can turn to ghosts before your eyes
And the very dreams that led to them
Are keeping them from dying
How the grace with which she walked into your life
Will stay with you in your steps
And pace with you awhile
For so long...so long So long...So
long
Repeat chords for second verse.
The speaker in this door is blown
So nothing sounds quite right
(taking my time, taking this job
waving this town goodbye)*
I drive this ocean road, and remember
(The smell of your back,
the nape of your neck I remember everything)
As I drive (waving this town goodbye)
Play the last part twice.
...so long so long.
(taking my time, taking this job, waving this town goodbye)
Da da da Da da da daa (continue playing same chords)
And I will leave under the cover, summer??s kiss upon the sky
Like the stone face of your lover, just before she says goodbye
And I was certain that the season, could be held between my arms
Just as summer??s hold is fleeting
I was here but now I??m gone I'm
Gone So long, So Long. Repeat
Da da da da da daa. Repeat
End on G
(you might want to play along with the cd to get the timing right)
Cheers dudes.
