Streetlight Manifesto - Toe to Toe
As far as i can tell this is played entirely on acoustic guitar. The Chords are
played as barres high up the fret board but it can be played with open chords and will sound fuller.

G B Em D C
Some day you will grow up and learn to lie
G D
Just like your daddy did when he told you no one ever really dies
G B Em D C G
I hope that I'm not there when you realize
D C G
That those with their nose in the air will never look you in the eye
[Chorus]
Em G
And you will go toe to toe
C G B
Like David and Goliath
Em C
Who will be Goliath?
G
And will you throw the stone?
Em G
I dont know yeah I dont know
C G B
Said the man with all of the answers
Em
If he dont have the answers
C G
How will I ever know?
Em D
I knew an old man
C G
With nothing to do but wait
D
He invited himself
C G Em
And he still showed up late
D C G D
When it came to the end of the night he would always overstay
C Em D
But I never had a reason to complain
C G
Until the day he stopped coming by and I missed his company
[Chorus]
Em G
And you will go toe to toe
C G B
Like David and Goliath
Em C
Who will be Goliath?
G
And will you throw the stone?
Em G
I dont know yeah I dont know
C G B
Said the man with all of the answers
Em
If he dont have the answers
C G B
How will I ever know?

C G
And I dont care
D Em D C
What you do with the little time everyone gets
G B Em C
As long as you do the math, choose a path that will never hurt anyone else
G D Em D C
Although theyll hurt you make them sure they burned you
G B
They will not forget

[Chorus]
