¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
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 [email protected].

You're a wet cigarette You're always second best

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
G
You sit back you smile and this is what you hum you hum

C Am F G
He wakes up sad again and he wonders when the rain will end
C Am F G
She acts like she don't care cause to her it's just a game that he plays
C Am F
I'm a super I'm a nothing I'm a no one goin' nowhere fast
G C
But I don't care but I don't care
Am F
I'm a super I'm a nothing I'm a no one goin' nowhere fast
G C,Am,F,G
But I don't care but I don't care
C
The years go by the time it does fly

passes oh so quick and it seems like nothing
G
but when you're looking back well it amounts to everything
C
I've got myself I've got my friends
Am
I've got my little family but that's not where it ends
F
This one goes out to you it goes out to everyone
G
It's in the name of honesty because life has just begun
C F G C
Started with six or seven moved on to eight or nine What will you do when they come
you?
C F G C
Nobody seemed to notice nobody seemed to mind What will you do when they come for you
C F G C
Little miss demissed can't miss like a detuned radio I cannot believe you when you tell
what you know
C F G
C
And nothing will be broken if your house is made of stone But you will know as I do it
never be a home
Am F C G
We want it they got it They claim we'll die without it
Am F C G
But something tells me they are wrong
F G
C F G C
So what will you do when they call your name and you're not ready to go
C F G C
Everyone will stare at you and tell you what you know
C F Am G
That you're in too deep and you can't quite keep your secrets one and all
F G C Am
We might just make it after all on our own
F G C C
We might just make it after all
F G C Am
But we had one foot on the gas and one foot in the grave
C F G C
Everyone was laughing when we said we had it made
C F G G
Everyone was laughing when we said we had it made
C Am
All the times he said he would she never really understood
F G C
What he said or what he meant he won't forget what wasn't said
C Am F G
He'll find himself alone standing in the rain yeah yeah yeah
C Am F
I'm a super all or nothin' I'm a no one going nowhere fast
G
But I don't care
C Am F
I'm a super all or nothin' I'm a no one going nowhere fast
G C Am F G
But I don't care but I don't care
C G
Maybe the times we had they weren't that bad
Am
And everything else was part of the plan
Dm C G
We sang I don't know where we go from here
C G Am F
This is the alpha omega beginning and the end
C G C
And we all just idolize the dead
C G Am
So you were born So you were born and that was a good day
Dm C G
Someday you'll die Someday you'll die and that is a shame
C G Am F
But somewhere in the between was a life of which we all dream
C G C
And nothing and no one will ever take that away
C G Am
Me and Mr Dylan on the ride home
F C G
We had a heart-to-heart about life
C G Am Em
But neither him or me could decide for ourselves
F G
If we wanted to outlive that night
C G Am
Like two children on the playground of the unconfessed souls
F C G
Abandoned by our mothers and our lovers and our foes
C G Am Em
If only we were brave enough to live the lives we stole
F G
What a wonderful world this could be
C
Na na na na na na
G
Na na na na na na na
Am F
Na na na na na na na na na
C
Na na na na na na
G
Na na na na na na na
Am F
Na na na na na na na na na
C G Am
When as you close your eyes for the big sleep
F
I hope you think of me yeah
C
Na na na na na na
G
Na na na na na na na
Am F
Na na na na na na na na na
C F G C
So do the right thing or do nothing What will you do when they come for you
C F G C
Or just do what is easier What will you do when they come for you
C F G C
That's what I read what I swear they said to me Nine times out of ten they lied to me
C F G G
And after all they had the guts to say Son no one will save you now
Am F C G
We want it they got it They claim we'll die without it
Am F C G
But something tells me they are wrong
C G Am
So how many more examples until we break
F C G
So how many sacrifices must we make
C G
Because we've all been there once before
Am Em
And it looks like we've returned once more
F G
So is this the beginning or the end
C G
The last two soldiers on the battlefield
Am
Survivors of the war
F C G
They aim at one another while their mothers beg the lord
C G
If you're listening I'm missing him
Am Em
So somehow bring him home
F G
How did it come to this
C G
So the soldiers lift their rifles
Am
And they're aiming at the head
F C G
They think of their first love before they take their final breath
C G Am Em
And somewhere in the distance they hear something someone said
F G
How did it come to this

Outro Chorus
C G Am
When as you close your eyes for the big sleep
F
I hope you think of me yeah
C G
Yeah the times we had they were not that bad
Am
And everything else that was part of the plan
Dm C G
And we sang I don't know where we go from here
C G Am F
This is the Alpha Alpha Omega Omega beginning and the end
C G C
And we all just idolize the dead
C G Am
So you were born So you were born and that was a good day
Dm C G
Someday you'll die Someday you'll die and that is a shame
C G Am F
But somewhere in the between was a life of which we all dream
C G C
And nothing and no one will ever take that away
And someday soon my friends this ride will come to an end
But we can't just get in line again
