			     WATCH IT CRASH - Streetlight Manifesto
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: dodlhuat

Tuning: Standard

G
Last night I woke alone with a whisper in my ear (whisper in my ear)
G
Recanting all my aspirations and my fears
G
And when the sun came up that voice had disappeared
B
But it would linger on for years

            Em
It said "We can't just blame it on our mothers
           Em
Claim everything they did was always wrong"
          C
And there ain't not turning back when our train is off its track
            Em
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash (watch it crash)
          C
And there ain't no right or wrong when we know it won't be long
            Em
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash

G  x3
B

   G
So mercy, mercy, mercy me
G
Praying for the death of a man I'll never meet
       G
Though everyone will know the truth they'll still just make believe
B
Mercy mercy me

    Em
"We can't just blame it on our mothers
           Em
Claim everything they did was always wrong"
          C
And there ain't not turning back when our train is off its track
            Em
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash (watch it crash)
          C
And there ain't no right or wrong when we know it won't be long
            D
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash

   G
So mercy, mercy, mercy me
G
Praying for the death of a man I'll never meet
       G
Though everyone will know the truth they'll still just make believe
D
Mercy mercy me

G    
That's all they came for, that's all they took
G
That's all we had to offer, only dirty looks
G
And when they realized we'd given all we could, 
B
that's when they finally understood

G
Mercy mercy mercy me
G
Haunted by the memories of things we'll never see
G
Guilty for the statements that we'll never get to speak
D
Mercy mercy me

Em
We can't quite blame it on our mothers
           Em
Claim everything they did was always wrong"
          C
And there ain't not turning back when our train is off its track
            Em
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash
          C
And there ain't no right or wrong when we know it won't be long
            Em
And there's nothing we can do but watch it crash
         Em
