D G Intro: (Dead strumming, listen to song for rythym, then:)D GD G (again, listen to song for rythym)D We walk the paths of the banks ofG the mighty SusquehannaD With our feet made muddy by your tributariesG That trickle their way to the ChesapeakeD It's like we follow I-83 down to the harbor citiesG Strip malls and the tar-macD People swirling and teamingG It seemed so exciting, but now it seems like such a blightD GD GD G I grew up near Kentucky's Mt. Zion RoadD All that was there was some oldG cemetaryContinúa después del anuncioD I wanted nothing more than to beG able to walk to the storeD Now I don't live there but there's too many storesG Some apartments and a SunocoD And I wonder what did they do withG the bodies?D And I wonder what did they do withG the bodies?D Oh!G Susquehanna (repeat this four times)D GD GD And I miss that place behind my house where IG Hiked and climbed and playedD Where I'd ditch this noisy century or justG Hid out from the decadeD M-I homes thought it could stand toG be updatedD Forced it all into a grid until itG looks like the funny pagesD With every trace of light thatG seems confined within a frameD The faces move from day to day butG the strips all look the sameD And the punchlines are resoundinglyG unfunnyD For those trapped in thisG architecture of easy moneyD And I feel like this all come to noG goodD This kids who populate theseG cul-de-sacs will never know what stoodD Beneath their cookie-cutter houses,G fields and streams and woodsD They'll sit in cars and wait for mom to drive themG Out of this boring neighborhoodD Oh!G Susquehanna (x4)D And I wonder, what did they do withG the bodies?
