The Hands That Thieve

Streetlight Manifesto is a third wave ska punk band from East Brunswick, New Jersey, under the creative leadership of singer/guitarist Tomas Kalnoky. Since forming in 2002, the band has released four full-length albums.  Several of Streetlight's members were already well known among the New Jersey ska community for their roles in past ska bands from that area, most notably Catch 22's Tomas Kalnoky, James Egan, Mike Soprano, and Josh Ansley, as well as One Cool Guy's Stuart Karmatz, Pete Sibilia, Dan Ross, and Chris Paszik.  

I once uploaded a version of this song but it only contained the first couple notes. Now, with a little help, I have been able to tab the complete intro of this song. Enjoy.

G                  C
Not long ago in my high school days,
D                        G
I watched a girl from so far away,
Em                 C
But every time she passed me by,
D                         G
I turned my head away and quietly sighed.
G                          C
And when she walked by her hair would dance,
D                        G
A secret tango that only I could understand,
Em                            C
And when she'd ask me for the time of day,
D                            G
I'd look her in the eyes and quietly say.

G            C 
Oh Kristina, Kristina, 
   D                       G
do you have any clue who I am? (HELL NO!)
Em                      C          
So listen up cause I'll tell ya once 
         D                              G
and I'll explain myself the best that I can, 
      G         C
whoa, Kristina, Kristina 
          D                      G
you don't know me so ill have to persist, (whistle)
Em                  C
I'm kinda shy so no wonder why, 
D                         G
Kristina she don't know I exist.

G                      C
From class to class, I followed her,
D                        G
But I swore id leave her undisturbed,
Em                            C
And if she'd ever stopped and turned around,
D                           G
I'd get so nervous that I'd stare at the ground.
G                   C
And then one day in photography, 
D                            G
I found a contact print that I could not believe, 
Em                        C
and there she was staring back at me.
D                     G
So I took her home so quietly.

   G         C    
Oh Kristina, Kristina, 
   D                       G
do you have any clue who I am? (HELL NO!)
Em                      C     
So listen up cause I'll tell ya once 
         D                              G
and I'll explain myself the best that I can, 
G         C
Kristina, Kristina 
          D                       G
you don't know me so I'll have to persist, [whistle]
Em                  C
I'm kinda shy so no wonder why, 
D                         G
Kristina she don't know I exist.

G C D G Em C D G 

G    C  
1.17.98 
D                        G
has been a day that I've come to hate,
Em                   C
As I walked into the video store,
D                         G
There she stood as my jaw fell to the floor.
G                    C
Tapping her toe, and waiting in line,
D                G
With a movie and another guy,
Em                C
Why did I bother, Why did I care,
D                     G
About this girl named Kristina Behr?

G         C
Kristina, Kristina, 
       D                       G
you'll never get to know who I am (YOUR LOSS!)
Em                 C
This is goodbye so please don't cry 
            D                       G
and ill let you down as softly as I can,
G         C
Kristina, Kristina, 
D                            G
another name to cross off my list.
Em               C
Another life, it could've been nice, 
    D                                G
but Kristina she won't know what she missed.

9mm And A Three Piece Suit

E  B  A  F#m A X2
 
Verse:
 
       E               B
She was diagnosed on a Friday,

    A
The kids were almost home,

    F#m                A                  E
The kids were on their way back home from school,

                       B
Lying face down in the gutter,

    A
Of unaccomplished dreams,

    F#m          A               E
And broken memories of things to come.

                       B
"Sorry ma'am, I really am. I had to break the news.

   A                            F#m                  A
I had to make the phone call to tell you that you're due,

         E                    B
You know where, I'll tell you when,

         A                           F#m
And I suggest you start living these next three weeks,

    A                      E
The best way that you can."

                 B                 A
Every night for three long weeks,

                        F#m    A     E
She?d roam the hallways half asleep,

                     B
And as the footsteps fade away,

 A                          F#m              A    
In my mind, I could swear, I could swear, I heard her say:

Chorus:

 A             B                       E                       F#m     A
Don't wait for me, you?ve got a lot to do, you?ve got a lot to be,

           B(stop)                     
And in the end maybe, I'll see you there.


Inter: E  B  A  F#m A x4

# After, its all the same for the verse and chorus again.
# Hope you enjoy!

# Intro: C  G  Am  Dm  C  G  
 C  G  Am  F  C  G  C

         C    G         Am
You were gone   when we found you
         Dm          C                    G
You were practically surrounded, you were trapped
        C          G              Am          F
But the opposition stalled, their blood ran cold
C                 G                    C
When they saw the look of love in your eyes

          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
You had a love     and that love had you
Dm             C                  G
   And nothing mattered, you were fine
    C         G                      Am             F
And some will complain, they're just bitter, what a shame
               C                    G                      C
They know that loving and losing is better than nothing at all

          C                  G
Maybe the times we had, they weren't that bad
    Am
And everything else was part of our path
   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
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.

I know it's a Catch 22 song, but it was also on the Keasby Nights

 of each progression in the beginning

C          G         
And so she wakes up
Am         F
in time to break down
C          G
She left a note up on the dresser
Am         F
and she's right on time
C       Em           F
You don't know anything
G

C    Em    F    G

C        G
I said I know

I wanna panic
         Am      F
yeah I've had, I go
C    Em        F      G
You don't owe anything to anyone

C    Em    F    G

F                   C

'cause it's all that you've got
Am                       Em
You'd be better off just up and leaving
       Dm                    F
if you don't think they will stop

C                   G

Don't wanna find her full name followed by dates
C              G         
because when i left her alone
Am           F

C        G        Am           F
"You're known by everyone for everything you've done"
C           Em              
Fuck buying flowers for graves

side tonight the 
G      
moment of truth is haunting you
Am
Don't forget your family

I'll start the engine but I can't take this ride for you
C                            G
I'll draw your bath and I'll load your gun
      Am                      F         G

Dm                  A#                      F               Dm  
I never met a loser that I didn't see eye-to-eye with, I declare

A#              F
I stare into your eyes

Dm             A#                 F
But you look right past me into the air

Dm             A#                F
What's it like to stand in your shoes?

Dm                          A#             A
To have never felt the belt of somebody's abuse?

Dm                    A#                          F
I take the bottle and I tip it for all my heroes that have passed
 
Dm                        A#              F
Alas, you have left us, but your stories they will last

Dm                 A#         F
Uninspired by the recruiting call

              Dm

Prechorus Verse

 Dm                         A#                           F
So tell me how long do you think you can go before you lose it all?

F
Before they call you bluff and watch you fall?

Dm            A#
I don't know, but I'd like to think I had control

F              F
At some point, but I let it go and lost my soul

           Dm                     A#
Sit tight, but the revolution's years away

F                            F
I'm losing faith and I'm running low on things to say

Dm                      A#
So, I guess I have no choice but to regurgitate

F                            F
The tired anthem of a loser and a hypocrite

         Dm           A#          F              F
Oh! To have died that night, I realized it wouldn't last

Dm                        A#
Our days were numbered and the reaper tipped the hourglass

 F                        F
The final mayday of our sinking ship had come and passed

Dm     A#           F                        F                  
Oh! To the west, you don't know what it is you're running from

Dm                A#
And everybody's laughing loud

F                                                 F
Last chance to make your mother and your father proud

Dm  A#   F   Dm  A#  F  Dm A#  F    Dm     A#  A  
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

A moment of silence, please, for those who never get the chance

Dm                           A#              F
They show up to the party, but they're never asked to dance

Dm                                A#        F
The losers, the liars, the bastards, the thieves

Verse

            Dm               A#                F
They said "a pox, upon your house, upon your family 

      Dm                A#                F
And everyone you knew, and everyone you'll ever meet"

   Dm                    A#               F
I bet they think we wish we joined when we could

Dm                          A#        A
But we do what we want, we don't do what we should

Dm    A#                      F
Now, everybody's laughing, 'cause they're thinking they're


in on something I don't get

Dm
Don't forget

A#             F
I connect and I read every word you said

Dm               A#            F
Like a child who believes he was wronged

Dm                           A#     A
If you hate me so much, then stop singing my songs

How did Camus really die that night?
                                                A               Dm
Were they right? When he died was it really his time, or was it suicide?
Dm
And Holden Caulfield is a friend of mine

You're out on the street again

Did you know you couldn't swim?

You're out on the street again
     Dm                                      A
I'm not going to play if there ain't no way I'll win!

Hey there Salinger, what did you do?
C                       Dm
Just when the world was looking at you
         Dm                  F
To write anything that meant anything,
    C                Dm
You told us you were through
Dm                            F
And it's been years since you passed away,
      C                    Dm
But I see no plaque, and I see no grave
    Dm           F             C              Dm
And I can't help believing you wanted it that way


Dm                        F
And Vincent Van Gogh, why do you weep?
         C                             Dm
You were on your way to heaven but the road was steep
    Dm               F
And who was there to break your fall?
      C               Dm
We're guilty, one and all
      Dm                     F
And I don't know much, but I do know this:
       C                    Dm
With a golden heart comes a rebel fist
    Dm           F              C                         Dm
But I can't help agreeing with those that would not quit

Verse
      Dm
And it makes me sick when I think of it
      Dm
All my heroes that could not live with this
      A
and I hope you rest in peace 
             Dm
Because with us, You never did!
Dm
And K.D.C., you were much too young!
Dm
And you changed my life!
                        A
But I draw the line at suicide!

G      Bm
Woe is me
   Am                     Am      Bm     Cm
I swear that I had it but everyone wouldn't agree
    Cm7                 G    D
They said I never had a thing
G        Bm           Am      Bm
My dying words will be exaggerations
Cm          Cm7         G     D
Of what I said and what I did

Cm               G
The ticking of the clock
Cm           D
Eventually it stops


[Chorus]

G      Em
Oh me oh my
C        Am               G  Em
Goodness gracious what a lie
      B                 C                           G
Where everyones running around like they dont have a clue
               Em
What they will do
          C
Now that its through
         Am          G
And the ending is in sight
G      C             G
Oh my goodness me oh my
                Am                 G
Its late and its time to say goodnight

G  Bm
My disease
       Am             Am     Bm    Cm
Though feasibly easily curable I will agree
                           G      D
that its not something I overfeed
G                 Bm
The truth will be told
Bm           Am
The lies will unfold
Am           Am   Bm  Cm
And anything anyone ever ignored
                            G          D
will come back up to settle old scores

Cm7                   G
The writings on the wall
Cm7                 G
Says eventually we fall
Cm7            G
And even Romans know
Cm7                                                 D
That everything (everything) everything (everything) goes


[Chorus]

G      Em
Oh me oh my
C        Am               G  Em
Goodness gracious what a lie
      B                 C                           G
Where everyones running around like they dont have a clue
               Em
What they will do
          C
Now that its through
         Am          G
And the ending is in sight
G      C             G
Oh my goodness me oh my
                  Am                 G
It's late and it's time to say goodnight

C
And the days and the days they seem like

G
Forever

C
But forever isn't ever enough!

C
I'd like to sing a song

Hopefully this versions a wee bit better, but we'll see.
I'll keep trying and such.

It's 2:00 in the morning right now, so I'll edit this and add more detail later if someone wold like. Message me if you need help with it. Horns go to the same progression as the verse.

Sick And Sad

I made this tab completely by ear when I refused to play the chords. So fair, I only have a small part of the intro, but I hope you enjoy it.

# 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.

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?"

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.

Streetlight Medley

F                  Am                   Gm
I am thinking it's a sign that the freckles
                 Bb
In our eyes are mirror images and when
We kiss they're perfectly aligned
F                  Am                Gm
And I have to speculate that God himself
                 Bb
Did make us into corresponding shapes like
Puzzle pieces from the clay
F               Am               Gm
True, it may seem like a stretch, but
                   Bb
Its thoughts like this that catch my troubled
Head when you're away when I am missing you to death
F                Am                 Gm
When you are out there on the road for
                       Bb
Several weeks of shows and when you scan
The radio, I hope this song will guide you home
F                             C
They will see us waving from such great
            Gm              Dm
Heights, 'come down now,' they'll say
F                                  C
But everything looks perfect from far away,
          Gm                Dm
'come down now,' but we'll stay...

I tried my best to leave this all on your
Machine but the persistent beat it sounded
Thin upon listening
That frankly will not fly. you will hear
The shrillest highs and lowest lows with
The windows down when this is guiding you home 

They won't see us waving from such great heights,
"Come down now", they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away
"Come down now", but we'll stay...

(music)

They won't see us waving from such great heights,
"Come down now", they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away
"Come down now", but we'll stay...

(They won't see us waving from such great heights,
"Come down now", they'll say
They won't see us waving from such great heights)

Such Great Heights

F  G
Dear
        C   G  Am                  F
Mr. Gepetto: I hope this finds you well
  G           C     G
I wrote this letter
           E5              F
'cause we miss you here in hell

           C                      G
And now I know it's hard when you don't know what to think
     Am                      F             G
And every single smile is a thorn when you're waking up
C                        G                         Am
  You might try but you won't get by until you're crucified for all the
F           G
things you try to do

     C                   G
Well I don't care if you sink or swim
    Am                    Em
And I don't care how you hold it in
    F                 C              F                      G
As long as you don't bother me with all the things I don't bother you with

    C               G
And 9 times out of 10 you might be right
Am                     Em
  But what about that time you know you're wrong?
F                  C
 Keep singing that same song
    F                             G
And everybody smiles but they'll never get along

     XX              XX            X X   X   X  X
I'm trying and I'm trying and I'm trying to let go:
But everybody's going down tonight

[Chorus]
C5                   G5
 We are the few that won't say nothing right
A5                     F5    G5
 We are the footsteps fading into the night
C5                G5                 A5        F5    
      G5
 Nobody cares and nobody stares with such conviction and I say:
C5                   G5
I never wanted this, no one ever wanted this
A5                          F5               G5
But they gave it to me so I might as well be proud of it
   C5                 G5
And I don't know where we went wrong
A5                  F5            G5
All i know now is i got to do something right

C G Am F G
C G Am

F       G
So come clean
C                          G                           Am
No one should have have to live with the things you've seen
    F             G
But you're living anyway
       C                G
Well I stop the car and put her in park
   Am                  Em
And I step outside (god I hate this part)
       F                     C                         F
When I see what I saw what I thought was a lie; it was more
                        G
Than a chore I'm just doing what I need to get-

C                   G
I don't care if you leave or stay
      Am
But we might as well split
             Em                 F
Because it's not the same as it was
                 C
When we said our last goodbye
     F                           G
And if you want the truth: I was hoping one of us would
C                        G               Am
  Pass away because it'd be much easier then
                   Em                      F
We could all get together and think about when
                       C                        F
We were young we were dumb we were numb but in love
                      G
And I'm done so I'm sending out this letter today

     XX              XX             XX  X X  X
I'm trying and I'm trying and I'm trying to let go:
But everybody's going down tonight

[Bridge]
C          G         Am        F     G
And as the day fades no one investigates
C          G            Am        F   G
Nobody answers when she calls his name
C          G      Am            F      G
Another victim, somewhere in a shallow grave
C            G           Am     F[one strum]
 I want to hold her and tell her: it's not your fault

Baby really hurt me
                Am

                Dm
He dont wanna know me

says you make the big mistake of dancing in my store 
Gm                  C
   Says it was poison
                 F
So I guess I go home 
          Am                     Dm
into the arms of the girl that I love
                Am 
the only love I havent screwed up
A#                  Dm
   She's so hard to please
             Gm      C

I do my best to meet her demands
Am
play it romance
         Dm
we slow dance in the living room

but all that a stranger would see
        Dm           Gm               C     
is one girl swaying alone stroking her cheek

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me

till all of the tricks dont work anymore
Dm              Gm       C
And then they are bored of me
             
                    F
I know that its exciting
                     Am
running through the night but
              Dm                Am
every perfect summer's eating me alive

A                                     E 
Roll into your town and I'm walking around
                                                Fm                        
Got some extra time think I'll throw some money down
                                                     D
And you follow me around, and you're asking for the time

Your asking what I found 
                         A
think I'm gonna rob you blind

maybe it's the tattoo on my arm
        E
that I drew while I was bored waiting tables in new york
Fm                                            D
 a  heart and two flowers intertwined with a vine

 G                              D
You like New York City in the daytime
 Bm                   A
I like New York City in the nighttime
 G                          D
You say you like sleeping with the air off
Bm                  A
I don't, I need it on
G                  D
You like the light coming through the windows
 Bm                      A
I sleep late, so I just keep 'em all closed
G                  D
You ignore the music on the radio
Bm                 A
I don't, I sing-a-long


[Pre-Chorus]

But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right
       Bm                   A
'Cause we work so well and we don't even know why
 G              D
You can call it fire and ice
    Bm                  A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D

Cold outside and you're just in a T-shirt
Bm                   A
I have cold blood even in a sweater
G                         D
You start your night sippin' by the Kilo
Bm                   A
I don't, I know you know


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no

[Bridge]
G                          D
Somehow we end up on the same side
Bm                          A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright
G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine

Somehow we end up on the same side (up on the same side)

We never spoke a word, but every thought she had 
                         G     A Asus A
I heard from across the room 
             D                               Bm7
If we were standin' face to face I couldn't find the words 
               G               A Asus A
To say give me one more move 
        G              A             G                   A

There are children standing here,
                              G
Arms outstretched into the sky,
                          D
Tears drying on their face.
              Am
He has been here.
                          E
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
                           G
Fathers lost without a trace.
                           D
A nation blind to their disgrace,
                        Am
Since he's been here.
                    E
And I see no bravery,
 G                  D
No bravery in your eyes anymore.

Only sadness.

(Continue the same chord progression)

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel to accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Says, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.
