Streetlight Manifesto
Text File
Intro: Bm F# G F# G F#
(base horm melody goes with those chords)
Verse #1:
Bm
I once knew a guy, obsessed with the afterlife
F# G F# G F#
Oh what a terrible day that was, he realized he'd wasted all his
Bm
Time was ticking by, and he'd been left behind
F# G F# G F#
And as the clock tick-tocked his heart did stop and everything he had was fucked
Pre-chorus/Chorus:
G F# Bm A G F# G
And we know not what we do (Can you hear them call?)
F#
Will we ever make it through?
Bm C# D Bm
As they watch us
G A
fall from the sky to the ground to the sea
D F#
Woe is me, woe is me, no one will save you now
G A F# Bm A G F#
We can only look away (away!), away-way-way-way-way
G A D F#
We'll not be victims there'll be no victims of to speak
G A Bm
And only then will we be free
G A Bm
And up will rise the meek
D A G
And when we fall we will fall together
Bm D A G
No one will catch us so we'll catch ourselves
Bm D A G
And where we roam we will roam forever
Bm D F#
No one will understand what we meant
(Right Into the Intro When You reach Meant)

The beaten and the bruised, forsaken, the abused
F# G F# G F#
Oh what a glorious day we'll have rising up and claiming all our dues
Bm
The day will come as sure as the ever-setting sun
F# G F# G F#
All of those that self-imposed will find themselves so indisposed
Pre-chorus/Chorus:
G F# Bm A G F# G
And we know not what we do (Can you hear them call?)
F#
Will we ever make it through?
Bm C# D Bm
As they watch us

And only then will we be free
G A Bm
And up will rise the meek

No one will catch us so we'll catch ourselves
Bm D A G
And where we roam we will roam forever
Bm D F#
No one will understand what we meant

Verse #3:
Bm D Em F#
Now! with the line drawn in the
Bm D G F#
Wet Sand You need to tell us where you stand
Bm D
Sitting, waiting, watching, rotting,
Em F# Bm D G
everything they warned us of is true
F#
Now tell me what we're all supposed to do
G A
They're coming after all of us with everything they've got
G A
With the fury of a soldier who will answer to his God
G A F#
So how will we fight? When all we have is logic and love on our side

Bm D A G
No one will catch us so we'll catch ourselves
Bm D A G
And where we roam we will roam forever
Bm D F# Bm
No one will understand what we meant
