The Big Sleep Streetlight Manifesto
I've had a lot of trouble with the current chords for this, so I decided to make
my own since I'm p. sure I'm correct.

[C]Why do you cry when you [G]know how the story [Am]ends?
[F]How can you laugh when you [C]know that it hurts your fr[G]iends?
[C]We've all been there [G]once, but you never [Am]left [Em]
[F]This is me coming back to get you o[G]ut to say goodbye, to make amends
[C] I'm not le[G]aving this pl[Am]ace
[F]Unless I'm [C]leaving with [G]you
Cause [C]you're the only [G]person with a [Am]half decent [Em]heart here
[F]And I know you will put it [G]to use
Until it's [C]gone, [G]gone, [Am]gone
[F]Gone, [C]gone, [G]gone

And if you [C]go, I'll be g[G]one
And [Am]you'll be left a[F]lone to live your [C]life, as you p[G]lease
But s[Am]omeday you'll a[F]gree that I was a[C]lways meant for [G]you
You were [Am]always meant for [F]me and you will s[C]ee

[C]Me and Mr. [G]Dylan on the [Am]ride home
We had a [F]heart-to-[C]heart about [G]life
But [C]neither him or [G]me could dec[Am]ide for ourse[Em]lves
If we [F]wanted to outlive that [G]night
Like two ch[C]ildren on the p[G]layground of the [Am]unconfessed souls
[F]Abandoned by our [C]mothers and our [G]lovers and our foes
If [C]only we were [G]brave enough to l[Am]ive the lives we s[Em]tole
What a wo[F]nderful world this could [G]be!

So, [C]how many more e[G]xamples until we [Am]break?
So [F]how many sacrif[C]ices must we [G]make?
Becaus[C]e we've all been there [G]once before
And it l[Am]ooks like we've ret[Em]urned once more
So is t[F]his the beginning or the [G]end?
The last two s[C]oldiers on the bat[G]tlefield
[Am]Survivors of the war
They a[F]im at one another while their [C]mothers beg the [G]lord
"If you're liste[C]ning, I'm [G]missing him
So s[Am]omehow bring him h[Em]ome.
[F]How did it come to t[G]his?"
So the sol[C]diers lift their ri[G]fles
And they're a[Am]iming at the head
They t[F]hink of their first love before they t[C]ake their final [G]breath
And s[C]omewhere in the d[G]istance they hear [Am]something someone [Em]said:
[F]"How did it come to t[G]his?"
[F] [E] [F]
