[Intro]
C/G Am E G
[Verse]
C/G Am E
In the Suburbs, I
I learned to drive
C/G Am
And they told me we'd never survive.
E G
Grab your mother's keys we're leavin'
[Interlude]
C/G Am E G
[Verse]
C/G Am E
You always seemed so sure
G
That one day we'd fight in
C/G Am
In a suburban war.
E G
Your part of town against mine
C/G Am E
So you're standin' on the opposite shore.
G
But by the time the first bombs fell,
C/G Am E
We were already bored.
G
We were already, already bored
[Chorus]
C/G Am
Sometimes I can't believe it;
E
I'm moving past the feelin'
C/G Am
Sometimes I can't believe it;
E G
I'm moving past the feelin' again.
[Interlude]
C/G Am E G
[Verse]
C/G Am E
Kids wanna be so hard.
G C/G Am E
But in my dreams we're still running and screaming through the yard.
G C/G Am E
When all the walls that they built in the seventies finally fall,
G C/G Am
When all the houses they built in the seventies finally fall;
E
Meant nothin' at all
G
Meant nothin' at all; it meant nothin'
[Chorus]
C/G Am E
Sometimes, I can't believe it;
G
I'm moving past the feelin'
C/G Am E
Sometimes I can't believe it;
G C/G Am E
I'm moving past the feelin' and into the night.
[Verse]
C/G Am E
So can you understand?
G C/G
Why I want a daughter while I'm still young.
E G
I wanna hold her hand and show her some beauty
C/G Am
before all this damage is done.
E G
If that's too much to ask
C/G Am
If it's too much to ask
E
Then send me a son.
C/G Am
Under the overpass
E G
Under the parking lot were still waitin'
C/G Am E
Its already passed.
G
So move your feet from hot pavement
C/G Am
and onto the grass.
E
'Cause its already passed
G
Its already, already passed
[Chorus]
C/G Am E
Sometimes I can't believe it;
G
I'm moving past the feelin'
C/G Am E
Sometimes I can't believe it;
G C/G Am
I'm moving past the feeling, and into the night.
[Coda]
E G C/G Am
I'm moving past the feelin'
E G C/G Am
I'm moving past the feelin'
E G C/G Am E
In my dreams we're still screaming
G C/G Am E
In my dreams we're still screaming
G C/G Am E
In my dreams we're still screaming
G
[Outro]
(Whistle to the melody)
C/G Am E G
C/G Am E G
[End on C]
