Thick As Thieves - Dashboard Confessional
tuning is in Eb MajorEb (like most other DC songs) Capo 2
or you could just Capo 1 and leave it in standard
I'm not sure the bridge is accurate. Feel free to comment and help.
When he plays FF in this song, it's Fsus, but any other variation will do
Fsus: 1332XX or 133XXX
F: 133211, X3321X
