[Verse]


C                Am  E           
 In the suburbs, I    I learned to 

  G
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, that

     G
 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
I’m moving past the feeling

  C    Am E G
 Again


[Verse]

     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

        C                 Am   E 
 In the seventies finally fall, 

              G
and all of the houses they built

        C                 Am  
 In the seventies finally fall, 

                       E           
meant nothing at all, meant nothing

   G
 at 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
I’m moving past the feeling

     C              Am E G
 And into the night

C Am E G


[Verse]


C                      Am E     
 So can you understand,    why I

        G
 want a daughter

                 C    Am        E
 While I’m still young, I wanna 

                 G
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
I’m moving past the feeling

  C   Am E           D
 Again,   I'm moving past the 
feeling

C Am E           D
      I’m moving past the feeling

C Am E G
