From the album Dusk and Summer.
Tabbed by Carl C. (CCon2284@yahoo.com)
By request, Rooftops and Invitations,
as you know I don't have a musical ear,
so if there are chord changes missing please forgive me.
It seems too simple to me,
the KISS principle says to "keep it simple, stupid" so here it goes...
listen to the song to get the timings down.

VERSE 1:
[A#add11]the first time you looked at her c[D#5]urves you were hooked
A#add11 D#5 Gm(barred) G#add9 A#add11
and the glances you took, took hold of you and demanded that you stay
and sunk in their teeth, bit your h[D#5]eart and released
A#add11 D#5 G#add9 Gm(barred) G#add9
such a charge that you need another touch, another taste, another fix
CHORUS:
[A#add11]she just might get you l[D#5]ost
and she [Cm7]just might leave you t[D#5]orn
but she [A#add11]just might save your s[D#5]oul
if she gets you when s[Gmadd11]he gets you any cl[D#5]oser
A#add11 Gm G#add9 x2
VERSE 2:
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/d/dashboard_confessional/rooftops_and_invitations_crd.html )
[A#add11]she leads you up, points out sky[D#5]lines and stars, steeple c[A#add11]hases in bars
D#5 Gm(barred) G#add9 A#add9
and took your keys and demanded that you stay
the city longs well for [D#5]rooftops and invitations
A#add11 G#add9 Gm(barred) G#add9
all lace in secret places, she moves you to touch with her hands
CHORUS:
[A#add11]she just might get you l[D#5]ost
and she [Cm7]just might leave you t[D#5]orn
but she [A#add11]just might save your s[D#5]oul
if she gets you when s[Gmadd11]he gets you any cl[D#5]oser
BRIDGE:
[G#]under the cold s[Cm]heet, where the welcomed t[D#sus2]ouch of skin and s[Cm]kin will [G#]meet
out on the i[Cm]nside where a girls p[D#sus2]rize is at the tip of your tongue
[A#]where every move and e[D#sus2]ach impulse brings c[Csus2]larity[D#sus2]
[A#]to stay like this is e[D#sus2]verything you'll eve[Csus2]r need[D#sus2]
CHORUS:
[A#add11]she just might get you l[D#5]ost
and she [Cm7]just might leave you t[D#5]orn
but she [A#add11]just might save your s[D#5]oul
if she gets you when s[Gmadd11]he gets you any cl[D#5]oser
[A#add11]she just might get you l[D#5]ost
and she [Cm7]just might leave you t[D#5]orn
but she [A#add11]just might save your s[D#5]oul
if she gets you when s[Gmadd11]he gets you any cl[D#5]oser
