The Suburbs

Intro: C Am E G

C                Am  E          
 In the suburbs, I     I learned
    G
 to drive
         C                     Am 
 And you told me we'd never 
  E                   G
survive, grab your mother's keys, 
we're leaving

(C Am E G)

C                     Am   E    
 You always seemed so sure,  
      G
That one day we'd be fighting
C             Am   E             
 In a suburban war,  your part of 
 G
town against mine
           C                       
 I saw you standing on the opposite
 Am                E       G
 shore, but by the time the first 
bombs fell
 C               Am    E         
 We were already bored,  We were 
         G
already, already bored

Chorus:
C            Am               E 
 Sometimes I can't believe it, 
          D
I'm moving past the feeling
C            Am               E 
 Sometimes I can't believe it, 
          D                C     
I'm moving past the feeling again
Am E G


     C                Am    E    
 The kids wanna be so hard,   but
       G
 in my dreams we're still screaming

     C                   Am    E 
 And running through the yard,  
               G
When all of the walls that they 
built in the
 C                 Am   E        
 Seventies finally fall,  And all
        G
 of the houses they built in the
 C                 Am        
 Seventies finally fall, meant 
             E                  
nothing at all, meant nothing at 
   G
all, it meant nothing

Chorus:
C            Am               E 
 Sometimes I can't believe it, 
          D
I'm moving past the feeling
C            Am               E 
 Sometimes I can't believe it, 
          D                     C 
I'm moving past the feeling and 
              Am E G
into the night

(C Am E G)

C                      Am E     
 So can you understand,     Why 
         G                        
I want a daughter while I'm still 
C     Am
young
           E                  G
 I want to hold her hand, and show 
her some beauty
   C                       Am   E
 Before all this damage is done, 
             G
 but if it's too much to ask
         C                Am      
 If it's too much to ask,    Then 
          E    G
Send me a son

C                  Am E    
 Under the overpass     In the 
            G
parking lot we're still waiting
      C              Am E        
 It's already passed      so move
      G
 your feet from hot pavement
     C              Am            
 And into the grass    cause it's 
        E                   G
already past, it's already, already 
past

Chorus:
C            Am               E 
 Sometimes I can't believe it, 
          D
I'm moving past the feeling
C            Am               E 
 Sometimes I can't believe it, 
          D                C     Am
I'm moving past the feeling again

E           D                C   
 I'm moving past the feeling 
  Am
again
E           D                C   
 I'm moving past the feeling 
  Am
again

(C Am E G)(x2)

       G                  C       
 In my dreams we're still 
  Am E
screaming
G                      C Am E
 We're still screaming
G                      C Am E
 We're still screaming
