Chord Streetlight Medley by Streetlight Manifesto

after i started learning songs by streetlight manifesto , i noticed that some songs have chord progressions that are similar . . . and sometimes the same . not too long ago , i got the idea to put a medley together - much like the infamous point/keasbey nights/Counterpoint that every sm loves so much . except this one isn’t quite as epic , and it contains a few more songs . 5 to be exact . so , i put one together last night containing 12341234 , the big sleep , supernothing , one foot on the gas , one foot in the grave , and somewhere in the between . this is a rough version , and i’m sure it could be better . these tabs are not my own , i got them from this site , though i did make a change here and there . if you have any questions , comments or suggestions feel free to email me - mattiewarunek@yahoo . com . streetlight medley words and music by tomas kalnoky arranged by matt warunek - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - C you , you try , you try to get by . Am "you’re never going to pull it off" , "you shouldn’t even try" F "you’re a wet cigarette" , "you’re always second best" , G but they’re never going to give a shit about anybody but themselves . C so you fight for them to realize; Am there’s more to life , there’s more to you , there’s more than meets the eye . F and when you’re done , the battle’s been won .
