The second verse and second chorus are exactly the same (except for some stops in the
verse) After the second chorus he breaks into the bridge/outro section:
[Bridge/outro]
These are the chords being played, a second guitar is picking through some
other stuff which is at the bottom:

Well, I believe thats about it. I'm sure there's stuff wrong but it's definitely close...
what a good song... enjoy!
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Breathe in for luck, Breathe in so deep
This air is blessed, You share with me
This night is wild, So calm and dull
These hearts they race from self-control
Your legs are smooth as they graze mine
We're doing fine, We're doing nothing at all.
[Chorus]
My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me
So won't you kill me, so I die happy
My heart is yours to fill or burst
to break or bury, or wear as jewelery
Which ever you prefer
[Verse 2]
The words are hushed lets not get busted,
just lay entwined here undiscovered.
Safe in here from all the stupid questions..
"hey did you get some?"
Man, that is so dumb.
Stay quiet, stay near, stay close
they can't hear, so we can get some.
[Chorus]
My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me
So won't you kill me, so I die happy
My heart is yours to fill or burst
to break or bury, or wear as jewelery
Which ever you prefer
[Bridge/Outro]
Hands down this is the best date I can ever remember
I'll always remember the sound of the stereo
The dim of the soft lights, the scent of your hair
That you twirled in your fingers
And the time on the clock when we realized it's so late
And this walk that we shared together
The streets were wet and the gate was locked
So I jumped it and let you in
And you stood at your door with your hands on my waist
And you kissed me like you meant it
And I knew, that you meant it
That you meant it, that you meant it
And I knew that you meant it, that you meant it.

Tuning—One Half Step Down (Eb Ab Db Gb Bb eb)
Alright, can’t guarantee it’s perfect, but it’s perfecter then the other versions.
No strumming pattern, sorry, but you can figure it out—you’re plenty smart.
I included palm muting and lyrics—take note for the lyrics, for example in the
first verse, second line of tablature, the lyric lines are overlapping—this does
not mean it is sung overlapping, it is just showing the pattern for chord
switching (the last words wouldn’t all fit on the same line AND still represent
accurate switching. Don’t fret.) It’s hard to explain, but don’t switch chords
until the lyrics are aligned with the next chord. You’ll get it.

Alright, this part needs a little explanation too... on the last line of this
verse, ignore the palm muting lines—Carrabba really just strums the A and B once,
rather then draw it out with a palm mute.

Those are the guitar parts for the first guitar, and there are just a few simple
riffs that go along as a second guitar in a few parts. Here they are (they’re not
perfect, sorry) :
The pretty bar is where there’s a chord change.

Keep in mind I didn’t tab the whole thing—they continue beyond the two times I
tabbed them, if you don’t know what I mean now, listen to the song.

Alright, this part needs a little explanation too... on the last line of this

Those are the guitar parts for the first guitar, and there are just a few simple

perfect, sorry) :
The pretty bar is where there’s a chord change.

It was starting to annoy me that none of the tabs here were correct for "Hands
Down". This tab is correct, taken straight from the "Correct Tabs" section over
at dashtabs. I'm not quite sure who tabbed it out, but it wasn't me, nor am I
taking any credit for this tab.

Hands Down (Band Version) by Dashboard Confessional
Tabber - Jake Chen
This is only Chris's part of the song...the second guitar part
is at the bottom. Uh.... kind of a note, I've seen the live version
of this and it's pretty much correct, however for the intro, it's alot
easier if you have helluva large hands but it's still alright for
the ppl that are hand length challenged.

Lyrics
Verse 1:
Breathe in for luck, Breathe in so deep
This air is blessed, You share with me
This night is wild, So calm and dull
These hearts they race from self-control
Your legs are smooth as they graze mine
We're doing fine, We're doing nothing at all.
Chorus:
My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me
So won't you kill me, so I die happy
My heart is yours to fill or burst
to break or bury, or wear as jewelery
Which ever you prefer
Verse 2:
The words are hushed lets not get busted,
just lay entwined here undiscovered.
Safe in here from all the stupid questions..
"hey did you get some?"
Man, that is so dumb.
Stay quiet, stay near, stay close
they can't hear, so we can get some.
Chorus:
Bridge/Outro:
Hands down this is the best date I can ever remember
I'll always remember the sound of the stereo
The dim of the soft lights, the scent of your hair
That you twirled in your fingers
And the time on the clock when we realized it's so late
And this walk that we shared together
The streets were wet and the gate was locked
So I jumped it and let you in
And you stood at your door with your hands on my waist
And you kissed me like you meant it
And I knew, that you meant it
That you meant it, that you meant it
And I knew that you meant it, that you meant it.
