Streetlight Manifesto/Catch 22
Please no bickering over which versions better
Intro: G (a few times)
[G] [Em] [D] [C]
[D]
[G]Staring out the window in som[Em]ebody?s pick up truck,
Well I ne[D]ver mind the boredom cause I u[C]se I for a crutch,
Just to g[G]et me to that plane it?s a di[Em]fferent state of sane,
And every[D] time I try to change I always e[C]nd out quite the same,
T[G]hinking back to ha[Em]ppier days eve[D]ryone was ignorant and [C]all the kids behaved,
But [G]me, my friends, and the i[Em]ce cream man,
T[D]hat was our existence,
T[C]hat was our clan,
T[D]his one goes out to the friends I never had!
H[G]ey I don[Bm]'t understan[D]d (but I'd li[C]ke to anyway)
H[G]ey I don[Bm]'t understan[D]d (but I like[C] it anyway)
H[G]ey I don[Bm]'t understan[D]d (but I like[C] you anyway)
D...
S[G]helter in the city we de[Em]cided to go in,
And I g[D]ave a man some money to b[C]uy us heroin,
The hom[G]eless man returned and he g[Em]ave me back a dime, he said,
"[D]Put it in your sock my friend and s[C]ave it for another time,"
[G]Lessons are learned and l[Em]ater unlearned,
And if h[D]e knew what he knows now,
Well h[C]e could rule the world,
But [G]I'm not one to judge,
What h[Em]appened yesterday,
Cause [D]I got me, I got myself, my fu[C]ture is at stake.
[D]This one goes out to the friends I never had!
Chorus
