DEAR SERGIO - TOH KAY
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Troispistols, Québec, Canada
I've corrected the chords found on UG for Dear Sergio - Bandits Of The Acoustic
Revolution, some chords in the verse were in the wrong order. So this Tab fits the live
performance :
"Streetlight Manifesto - Dear Sergio (Toh Kay at Joes Pub May 5th 2011)"

Tuning: Standard, Capo 2nd fret
[Intro]
Am F G C
Am Dm F G
[Verse]
Am F G C (Cmaj9)
Run, run, run all you do is run but you’ll never run away from yourself.
Am Dm F G
I know it’s hard but you’ve been there before and you know you’re gonna be there again.
Am F G C (Cmaj9)
I don’t care what the stars may say, they always feed their bullshit to me.
Am Dm F G
It’s kinda sad how you lost what you had and you’re never gonna have it again and so I say:
[Chorus]
C G Dm Am
Hey Sergio, you’ve got to get us out of here, and so I say:
C G Dm Am
Hey Sergio, it’s kind of getting hot in here, and so I say:
C G Dm Am
Hey Nanana na na na
C G Dm Am
E (G_D_C_B_A NOTES)
Whistled 2x
Am F G C
Am Dm F G
[Verse]
Am F G C (Cmaj9)
Every other day you don’t care what they say because they always leave you two steps behind.
Am Dm F G
You try to smile and it lasts for a while but they always send you back to the start.
Am F G C (Cmaj9)
Eenie meenie miney mo they shoot down everyone you know and then they leave you there
all alone.
Am Dm F G
You wish they’d stop but they never give up and you know deep inside that you’re stuck
and so I say
[Chorus]
C G Dm Am
Hey Sergio, you’ve got to get us out of here, and so I say:
C G Dm Am
Hey Sergio, it’s kind of getting hot in here, and so I say:
C G Dm Am
Hey Nanana na na na
C G Dm Am
E (G_D_C_B_A NOTES)
Am F G C (Cmaj9)
Sergio laughed for the last time today, He said “It never really bothered me: we all
have dues to pay”
Am Dm F G
Like a man that’s cut off at the knee, he hobbles and hobbles because nothing is free.
Am F G C (Cmaj9)
So you wake up, wake up, wake up but don’t cry because you’ll fuck up your make up
Am Dm F G
and if you do, you won’t get laid, you won’t make money, no you won’t get paid.
Am F G C (Cmaj9)
And you act so free, you act so free, everybody’s happy because you act so free
Am Dm F
Well you might fool them, but you can’t fool me with your mindless chatter like
G G G
“I don’t need them, I don’t need help, I don’t even need to see the end."
[Chorus]
C G Dm Am
Hey Sergio, you’ve got to get us out of here, and so I say:
C G Dm Am
Hey Sergio, it’s kind of getting hot in here, and so I say:
C G Dm Am
Hey Nanana na na na
C G Dm Am
E (G_D_C_B_A NOTES)
Thanks
