The Blonde Lead The Blind Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Streetlight Manifesto
Horn Intro:  G   Bm  C   D   x3
             G   C   G
             G   B   Em  C
             G   B   C   Cm
             G   Bm  C   D   x3
             G   C   G


Verse 1:
    G               B          C              D
The blonde lead the blind, but now I begin to see 
        G          Bm              C    D                  G               C       G
All the things you missed when you were dismissed, because learning always ends at three.
    G          B         C             D
And time after time, you pass along liability. 
            G          Bm             C         D 
And all the things you say, they only give you away, 
             G           C              G
Cause you're on the same level that you were that day, say! 


Horn Break:  G  Bm  C  D  G  C  G


Verse 2:
G               B            C                    D
Oh! Friend! You look too deep at the cover of the magazine
        G       Bm              C       D                G          C             G
But the words inside they come across deprived, and they force feed sh*t, but you still subscribe.
        G                    B        C                    D
And you watch, but you don't see, you touch, but you don't feel.
           G       Bm              C        D 
And you'll rue the day they try to take it away, 
         G                 C                G
But they know you'll never fight it if they keep it the same. 


Horn Break:  C  D  C  D  x2


Chorus
             C                               G                    D                          G
Did you lose faith? Yes, I lost faith in the powers at be, but in doing so I came across the will to disagree.
           C                     G                     D                       G
And I gave up, yes I gave up and then I gave in, but I take responsibility for every single sin.


Horn Break:  G   Bm  C   D   x3
             G   C   G
             G   B   Em  C
             G   B   C   Cm
             G   Bm  C   D   x3
             G   C   G


Verse 3:
     G              B       C               D
Soon everyone will see, and everyone will know
         G         Bm         C   D             G        C           G
That the things we Hid were irrelevant and it's all just part of the show.
        G             B          C              D
And the blemishes and scars that made us who we are:
              G     Bm            C      D                G            C               G
We're told to cover up, but we've taken enough, and we're not going to stop until it's taken apart.


Horn Break:  G  Bm  C  D  G  C  G


Verse 4:
     G                  B              C                    D  
Come one, come all to observe the fall: Free tickets to the free for all!
       G     Bm             C      D               G       C              G
And it never ends, it goes around again, and we're all bit players in the scheme of things.
      G                   B            C              D                 G
And I hope someday you'll find all the answers to the questions on your mind.
   Bm            C         D               G            C              G
In time you will cross the line and you'll realize that everything you thought was right...


Horn Break:  C  D  C  D  x2


Chorus
             C                               G                    D                          G
Did you lose faith? Yes, I lost faith in the powers at be, but in doing so I came across the will to disagree.
           C                     G                     D                       G
And I gave up, yes I gave up and then I gave in, but I take responsibility for every single sin.
