Hey guys, this is a great Guster song off of the album "Ganging Up on the Sun." I think
another version, but it wasn't all that great, so here's the complete song. It's really
piano song with backing guitar, so bare with me.
I use the barred chords for this as opposed to the open ones. It sounds more like the
and you can add the slides and things in between them easier (as I'm too lazy to actually
all the bells and whistles.)
Without further ado: "Manifest Destiny" by Guster
[Verse 1:]
C Dm G / A
Bones are broken and the will is sunk.
CHow did evDmerything get so Gfucked up?
G / A C Dm G
(Do you) want to change your mind?
G / A C Dm G
(You can) always change your mind.
[Chorus:]
You and FI can quit this Amscene
Build a Gtown and then seDcede
Like an FAdam Amand an EGve
To the dFreamers go the dAmreams
But beliGevers have the lDead
It's a fFrightening, Amfrightening Gthing
[Verse 2:]
C Dm G / A
Born to the land of opportunity
Cof ManifDmest destiGny
G / A C Dm G
(Do you) want to change your mind?
(You can) always change your mind
[Chorus:]
You and I can quit this scene
Build a town and then secede
Like an Adam and an Eve
To the dreamers go the dreams
But leaders have the lead
It's a frightening, frightening thing
[Bridge: Hit the chords just one time for each and hold it.]
CThe moon and Dmstars are ganging up on the Gsun
[Outro: Falsetto, people.]
