Arcade Fire - The suburbs

^C In the suburbs, ^AmI ^E I learned to ^Gdrive And you ^Ctold me we’d never s^Amurviv^Ee, grab your mother?^G??s keys, we’re leaving

^C You always seemed so ^Amsure,^E That one ^Gday we’d be fighting ^C In a suburban^Am war,^E your part of ^Gtown against mine I saw you ^Cstanding on the opposite ^Amshore, but by the ^Etime the^G first bombs fell ^CWe were already ^Ambored,^E We were already, ^Galready bored

^C Sometimes I ^Amcan’t believe i^Et, I’m mov^Ding past the feeling ^C Sometimes I ^Amcan’t believe i^Et, I’m mov^Ding past the feel^Cing ag^Amain^{E G}

The ^Ckids wanna be so ^Amhard, ^E but in my ^Gdreams we’re still screaming And ^Crunning through the ^Amyard, ^E When all of the ^Gwalls that they built in the ^CSeventies finally ^Amfall,^E And all of the ^Ghouses they built in the ^CSeventies finally ^Amfall, meant nothing at ^Eall, meant nothing at ^Gall, it meant nothing

^C Sometimes I ^Amcan’t believe i^Et, I’m mov^Ding past the feeling ^C Sometimes I ^Amcan’t believe i^Et, I’m mov^Ding past the feeling a^Cnd into the nigh^Amt ^{E G}

^C So can you understand,^{Am E} Why I want a ^Gdaughter while I’m stil^Cl youn^Amg I want to ^Ehold her hand, and ^Gshow her some beauty Be^Cfore all this damage is ^Amdone,^E but if it’^Gs too much to ask If it’^Cs too much to ask^Am, Then Send me ^Ea son^G

^C Under the overpass^{Am E} In the parking ^Glot we’re still waiting It’^Cs already passe^Amd ^E so move you^Gr feet from hot pavement And ^Cinto the grass ^Am cause it’s alread^Ey past, it’s alrea^Gdy, already past

^C Sometimes I ^Amcan’t believe i^Et, I’m mov^Ding past the feeling ^C Sometimes I ^Amcan’t believe i^Et, I’m mov^Ding past the feel^Cing ag^Amain

^E I’m movin^Dg past the feelin^Cg agai^Amn ^E I’m movin^Dg past the feelin^Cg agai^Amn

In my ^Gdreams we’re stil^Cl screamin^Amg ^{E G} We’re still screamin^Cg ^{Am E G} We’re still screamin^Cg ^{Am E}
