Dashboard Confessional es un grupo de música de origen estadounidense, liderado por el músico-compositor y guitarrista Chris Carrabba, originario de Boca Ratón (Florida).
En 1999 nace Dashboard Confessional como un proyecto solista-paralelo de Chris Carrabba, en el cual Chris tocaba la guitarra, cantaba y escribía todas las canciones.
Chris Carrabba grabó un par de cintas, entregadas una a su hermana y otra a su mejor amiga -Amy Fleisher-, quien trabajaba para Fiddler Records.
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
E Down in a local bar B Out on the Boulevard E The sound of an old guitar B Is saving you from sinking AB It's a long way down it's a long way
E Back like you never broke B You tell a dirty joke E He touches your leg B And thinks he's getting close
For now you let him A Just this once B Just for now A And just like that B It's over
E Don't turn away A Dry your eyes dry your eyes C#m Don't be afraid A But keep it all inside all inside E When you fall apart A Dry your eyes dry your eyes C#m Life is always hard Asus2 For the Belle of the Boulevard
In all your silver rings In all your silken things That song you softly sing Is keeping you from breaking It's a long way down it's a long way
Back here you never lost You shake the shivers off You take a drink To get your courage up Can you believe it Just this once Just for now And just like that It's over
[Chorus]
EB Please hold on it's alright C#mB Please hold on it's alright AB Please hold on
Down in a local bar Out on the boulevard The sound of an old guitar Is saving you
