Capo 2

Intro: D Bm F#m A

D                Bm  F#m            A
 In the suburbs, I     I learned to drive
         D                     Bm   F#m                 A
 And you told me we’d never survive, grab your mother’s keys, we’re leaving

D Bm F#m G
D                     Am   F#m        A
 You always seemed so sure,  That one day we’d be fighting
D             Bm   F#m            A
 In a suburban war,  your part of town against mine
           D                        Bm                F#m      A
 I saw you standing on the opposite shore, but by the time the first bombs fell
 D               Bm    F#m                A
 We were already bored,  We were already, already bored

Chorus:
D            Bm               F#m         E
 Sometimes I can’t believe it, I’m moving past the feeling
D            Bm               F#m         E                D     Bm F#m A
 Sometimes I can’t believe it, I’m moving past the feeling again

     D                Bm    F#m         A
 The kids wanna be so hard,   but in my dreams we’re still screaming
     D                   Bm    F#m              A
 And running through the yard,  When all of the walls that they built in the 
 D                 Bm   F#m              A
 Seventies finally fall,  And all of the houses they built in the
 D                 Bm                     F#m                   A
 Seventies finally fall, meant nothing at all, meant nothing at all, it meant nothing

Chorus:
D            Bm               F#m         E
 Sometimes I can’t believe it, I’m moving past the feeling
D            Bm               F#m         E                    D
 Sometimes I can’t believe it, I’m moving past the feeling and into the night

Bm F#m A

D Bm F#m A

D                      Bm F#m            A                        D     Bm
 So can you understand,     Why I want a daughter while I’m still young
           F#m                A
 I want to hold her hand, and show her some beauty
   D                       Bm   F#m           A
 Before all this damage is done,  but if it’s too much to ask
         D                Bm                F#m  A
 If it’s too much to ask,    Then Send me a son

D                  Bm F#m              A
 Under the overpass     In the parking lot we’re still waiting
      D              Bm F#m            A
 It’s already passed      so move your feet from hot pavement
     D              Bm                    F#m                   A
 And into the grass    cause it’s already past, it’s already, already past

Chorus:
D            Bm               F#m         E
 Sometimes I can’t believe it, I’m moving past the feeling
D            Bm               F#m         E                D     Bm
 Sometimes I can’t believe it, I’m moving past the feeling again

F#m         E                D     Bm
 I’m moving past the feeling again
F#m         E                D     Bm
 I’m moving past the feeling again

 In my dreams we’re still screaming

 We’re still screaming

 We’re still screaming
