Dashboard Confessional is an acoustic rock group started in 2000, by Chris Carrabba in Boca Raton, Florida, as a side project from his band Further Seems Forever.
Chris recorded his first album, The Swiss Army Romance, in 2000. The following year, he recorded Further Seems Forever's debut album The Moon Is Down. However, he left the band soon after the album's release, instead recording and releasing his sophomore album The Places You Have Come to Fear the Most, as well as a follow-up EP titled So Impossible.

Verse:
EbCm Hope dangles on a string
BbAb Like slow spinning redemption Winding in and winding out
Eb The shine of it has caught my eye And roped me in
CmBb So mesmerizing, so hypnotizing
Bb I am captivated...I am
Chorus:
EbAbCm Vindicated I am selfish I am wrong I am right I swear I'm right
BbEb I swear I knew it all along And I am flawed
Ab But I am cleaning up so well
CmBb I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself
Verse:
Eb So clear
CmBb Like the diamond in your ring Cut to mirror your intentions
AbEb Oversized and overwhelmed The shine of which has caught my eye
CmBb And rendered me So iSoloated, so motivated
Bb I am certain now that I am....
Chorus:
EbAbCm Vindicated I am selfish I am wrong I am right I swear I'm right
BbEb I swear I knew it all along And I am flawed
Ab But I am cleaning up so well
CmBb I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself
Bridge:
Ab So turn
Cm Up the corners of your lips
BbAb Part them and feel my finger tipsTrace the moment, fall forever
AbCm Defense is paper thin Just,one touch and I'd be in
BbBb Too deep now to ever swim against the current
EbCm - So let me slip away.. So let me slip away
Bb So let me slip Away
Ab So let me slip against the current 2x -
Chorus:
EbAbCm Vindicated I am selfish I am wrong I am right I swear I'm right
BbEb I swear I knew it all along And I am flawed
Ab But I am cleaning up so well
CmBb I am seeing in me now the things you swore you saw yourself
Outro:
Eb Slight hope
Cm It dangles on a string
Bb Like slow spinning redemption...
