Streetlight Manifesto - The Hands That Thieve Tabbed by: Null / Miamasa Email: oopsmybaddd@yahoo.com My first song transcribed, so there may be problems. - Gb's might be G/F#'s or something - Not too sure about the B at the end of the verses Tell me any corrections that need to be made! Intro D Dsus2 Verse 1

I felt no gu^Gilt till I was ca^Gbught And I was t^Emold that I was guilty, And ev^Cen then I wasn't really s^Gure, yeah y^Deah. ^CThe thing I felt was gui^Glt itself ^DOr maybe it was somethin^Emg else, ^CFrustration at the fact that I was ever cau^Dght at all. ^GI told a lie, I mult^Gbiplied it By the t^Emime I realized it I'd giv^Cen up everything I ever lo^Gved, yeah y^Deah. ^CCause the thing you left ^GWhen you're looking back, ^DIs the pressure the feel that you have to a^Emct Yeah every^Cthing is clearer when You're loo^Bking at the past, oh no.

G Am Em D (?) G Am C D Chorus

^CAnd I don't care if I l^Gose because my heroes did too, ^DThey shouted, "Court should be^Em adjourned!" Because the jury are fools. ^CAnd the judge can't dec^Gipher his left from his ri^Dght Or his right from his wrong. ^CAnd we will bite the hand that thi^Geves, We will not turn the other ch^Deek, this is no threat It is a pro^Emmise we will keep. ^CSo what's the point pret^Gending when we sit behind the cur^Dtain and there's nothing much to see, oh yeah.

G Gb C D C D G Gb C D C D Verse 2: same chords as 1

I felt no pa^Gin till I was fou^Gbnd, And I was t^Emold that I was bleeding. And ev^Cen then I knew I wasn't d^Gone, yeah y^Deah. ^CCause the wounds I get ^GThey will just collect, ^DInsuring that I won't f^Emorget. ^CReminders of the battles ^DThat I've lost and that I've won And I will f^Gight until I have^Gb died Or until al^Eml my enemies are allies And ev^Cen then I will sleep with an open eye^G, yeah ye^Dah. ^CCause the night is long and our ho^Goves are strong ^DAnd I know the road we ^Emtravel on It always s^Ceems so dark Because we've alm^Bost reached the dawn, Oh no.

G Am Em D (?) G Am C D Chorus

G Gb C D C D G Gb C D C D

^EmAnd everyone will cl^Caim, That they kn^Gew from the begi^Dnning. ^EmThat what they did was w^Crong, They st^Gill just went on sin^Dning. ^EmThe sudden rush you feel When rea^Clizing everything you k^Gnow Will fade away, it haunts you d^Deep,

But you won't want to let it go.

^EmSomeday we'll lose the w^Car, But till t^Ghen we will dream of win^Dning.

^CI won't for^Gget, The things you s^Daid, Em Em (Might be A C later) When I was down and I was tired of it. The words you sp^Goke, They brought me h^Dop

e. ^CWhen it was time to fi^Gght, We chose a si^Dde, But everyone k^Emnew that something didn't feel r^Emight. So we stood our gro^Gund, And waited for a si^Dgn

^CWhen it was time to fi^Gght, We chose a si^Dde, But everyone k^Emnew that something didn't feel r^Emight. So we stood our gro^Gund, And waited for a si^Dgn.

Rest of the song continues on this pattern basically.

^DYou said don't look back! (No, no, no, no...) Don't look back! ^C(We won't look b^Gack, We won't look do^Dwn, We've come too f^Emar, We're too high off the gr^Cound. The wheels have tu^Grned, The lessons lea^Drned.)

You said don't look back! Don't look back!
