-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
*****************************************************************************
Dashboard Confessional - Standard Lines (Places You Have Come to Fear The Most)
Tabbed by: Franklin Dean
*****************************************************************************
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
TUNING: Standard tuning half step down (flat tuning)
 6  5  4  3  2  1   (String Number)
|Eb|Ab|Db|Gb|Bb|eb| (Low to high)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: Some of you beginners may have trouble learning the intro, as it has some weird
finger positioning that you may have never done before. Simply learn the chords first
and then come back later and learn the intro. It also helps to break it up into
different parts. I make this tab assuming that you know little or nothing about
guitars and have therefore made this tab understandable to guitarists of all levels.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
DIFFICULTY LEVEL: Medium to Medium Hard.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

INTRO - / or  means to slide to next note. 
TIP: Learn the intro in two parts, the top, then the bottom.
