C Dm F  x2
    C (x32010@1)                      DmOh! (xx0231@1)Well, remember the guy who was a football star?
FHe (133211@1)had it made with the ladies but he never got far.
    C (x32010@1)                      DmFive (xx0231@1)years past, now he's gotten kind of fat, 
Fworking (133211@1)eight days a week at the Laundromat. 
    C (x32010@1)                      DmWith (xx0231@1)his Momma and his Daddy breathing down his neck, 
Fabout (133211@1)everything he does so much it makes him sick. 
    C (x32010@1)                      DmSo (xx0231@1)he sits home alone, with the game on TV, 
Fas (133211@1)the crowd goes wild he says, "That coulda been me!"

C (x32010@1)                            DmJust (xx0231@1)another day in Suburbia, it's a beautiful day in Suburbia
Em F
Best not let it get the best of you
      C (x32010@1)                             GIs (320003@1)it everything you thought it would be?

    C (x32010@1)                      DmRemember (xx0231@1)playing games at the rich kid's home?
FHis (133211@1)Dad owned a bank, while his mom was alone.
    C (x32010@1)                      DmEveryday (xx0231@1)with the mailman, the trash man, lawn guy...
FKid (133211@1)didn't look a damn thing like his Dad (I knew why)
    C (x32010@1)                      DmHe (xx0231@1)grew up got a job making eighty grand a year
FHad (133211@1)a wife and kid, all the guys call a queer
    C (x32010@1)                      DmBut (xx0231@1)his dad never knew, he was too blind to see

he said, "Guess it kinda ran in the family".

C (x32010@1)                            DmJust (xx0231@1)another day in Suburbia, it's a beautiful day in Suburbia

    C (x32010@1)                      DmRemember (xx0231@1)the girl down the street with the kids
FThat (133211@1)used to come outside, but she never did?
    C (x32010@1)                      Dm(why?) (xx0231@1)'Cause she was trying to hide the bruises where her old man beat her, 
F'cause (133211@1)he hit her in the face with an old space heater. (ow!)
    C (x32010@1)                      Dmand (xx0231@1)he came home drunk and tried to force sex on her
FBut (133211@1)he didn't see a 44 stuffed in the covers
    C (x32010@1)                      DmSo (xx0231@1)she waited 'til he came, he lie there naked
FBefore (133211@1)she blew his head off, she told him she'd been faking 
    C (x32010@1)                      Dmall (xx0231@1)along, so long for everything you done wrong
FHere's (133211@1)a bullet, go to hell, 'cause its where you belong!

          Fhe'd (133211@1)gone on to be a big star but nobody knew.
           C (x32010@1)                         Dm'cause (xx0231@1)he changed up his name but his heart stayed the same, 
      F'cause (133211@1)every song he wrote, was about her, he claimed. 
    C (x32010@1)                            Dmhe (xx0231@1)never got to tell her 'cause he died that year,

     C (x32010@1)                      Dmand (xx0231@1)the whole world cried, but just for one day 
     F'cause (133211@1)sooner or later, the pain goes away.
