The Suburbs
The Suburbs (2010)

D  Bm  F♯  A  x 2

In the suburbs, I
I learned to drive
And you told me we'd never survive
Grab your mother’s keys, we're leaving

D  Bm  F♯  A

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

  D           Bm
  Sometimes I can't believe it
  F♯         E                  x 2
  I'm moving past the feeling        again

D  Bm  F♯  A  w/ e d    d c♯  b a

The kids wanna be so hard
But in my dreams we're still screaming
And running through the yard
When all of the walls that they built in the
Seventies finally fall
And all of the houses they built in the
Seventies finally fall, meant nothing at all
Meant nothing at all, it meant nothing

  Refrain  and into the night

D  Bm  F♯  A  x 2  w/ ti-solo

So can you understand                                      (basse)
Why I want a daughter while I'm still young
I want to hold her hand
And show her some beauty
Before all this damage is done
But if it's too much to ask
If it's too much to ask
Then send me a son

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

  Refrain  again

  D  Bm  F♯  E  x 2  w/ I'm moving past the feeling again

D  Bm  F♯  A  x 6  w/ In my dreams we're still screaming
