[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
