The Suburbs (acoustic)

Intro: verse 1: In the suburbs, I.....I learned to drive, And you told me we’d never survive,...grab your mother’s keys, we’re leaving verse 2: 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 Sometimes I can’t believe it, I’m moving past the feeling Sometimes I can’t believe it, I’m moving past the feeling again verse 3: 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 Sometimes I can’t believe it, I’m moving past the feeling Sometimes I can’t believe it, I’m moving past the feeling and into the night verse 4: So can you understand,w....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.... Verse 5: 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 Sometimes I can’t believe it, I’m moving past the feeling Sometimes I can’t believe it, I’m moving past the feeling again I’m moving past the feeling again I’m moving past the feeling again x2 Coda: In my dreams we’re still screaming We’re still screaming We’re still screaming x2
