G5                A5
Flyin' east on a plane...
       B5                C5
Drinkin' all that free champagne
G5                 D5               C5              A5 D5
Guess I saw this comin' down the line...
  G5                      A5
And I know it should be fun, but
 B5                          C5
I think I should have packed my gun,
         G5             D5            C5
Got that old suburban showdown in my mind.


G5           E5 -         
----I've Been Gone for a while,
             B5
made some changes in my style
          C5                G5     F5        -     F5
and they say you can't go home anymore...
           E5
Well the streets all look the same,
           B5               E5 - E5 
and I'll have to play the game
      A5            -                B5    -
We'll all sit around in the kitchen chairs
         C5     - 
with the tv on
             D5     -  D5
with the neighbors there...



G5  -  A5  -  B5 -  C5
G5  -  D5   -  C5 ------- -> A5 - D5

Out in the yard...
Where my Dad works so hard
He never lets the crab-grass grow too high
Well the place hasn't changed and that's 
why I'm gonna feel so strange,
but I've had to face the music, by and by...



We'll fly into town, when
this big-bird touches down...
I'm only coming home to say godbye,
Then I'm gone with the wind, and I 
won't be seen again...
'till that great suburban showdown in the sky.
