Streetlight Manifesto is a third wave ska punk band from New Brunswick, New Jersey, under the creative leadership of singer/guitarist Tomas Kalnoky. Since forming in 2002, the band has released four full-length albums.
Several of Streetlight's members were already well known among the New Jersey ska community for their roles in past ska bands from that area, most notably Catch 22's Tomas Kalnoky, James Egan, Mike Soprano, and Josh Ansley, as well as One Cool Guy's Stuart Karmatz, Pete Sibilia, Dan Ross, and Chris Paszik.

EBAF#mA X2
Verse:
EB She was diagnosed on a Friday,
A The kids were almost home,
F#mAE The kids were on their way back home from school,
B Lying face down in the gutter,
A Of unaccomplished dreams,
F#mAE And broken memories of things to come.
B "Sorry ma'am, I really am. I had to break the news.
AF#mA I had to make the phone call to tell you that you're due,
EB You know where, I'll tell you when,
AF#m And I suggest you start living these next three weeks,
AE The best way that you can."
BA Every night for three long weeks,
F#mAE She’d roam the hallways half asleep,
B And as the footsteps fade away,
AF#mA In my mind, I could swear, I could swear, I heard her say:
Chorus:
ABEF#mA Don't wait for me, you’ve got a lot to do, you’ve got a lot to be,
B(stop) And in the end maybe, I'll see you there.
Inter: EBAF#mA x4
After, its all the same for the verse and chorus again. Hope you enjoy!
