Album: The Suburbs
Song: Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains)
Tabbed by: Adrienne Macpherson
Capo 3
Intro: C
[C]They heard me singing and they told me to [Am]stop
Quit these pretentious things and [F]just punch the [C]clock
These days my life, I feel it has no [Am]purpose
But late at night the feelings [F]swim to the [C]surface
'Cause on the surface the city lights [Am]shine
They're calling at me, come and [F]find your [C]kind
Sometimes I wonder if the World's so [Am]small
That we can never get a[F]way from the [C]sprawl
Chorus:
[F]Living in the [C]sprawl
[F]Dead shopping [C]malls rise like [F]mountains beyond [C]mountains[C][B]
And there's no [Am]end in sight
I need the darkness, someone [F]please cut the [C]lights
[C]We rode our bikes to the nearest [Am]park
Sat under the swings and [F]kissed in the [C]dark
We shield our eyes from the police [Am]lights
We run away, but we [F]don't know [C]why
On the black river, the city lights [Am]shine
They're screaming at us, we don't [F]need your [C]kind
Sometimes I wonder if the world's so [Am]small
That we can never get a[F]way from the [C]sprawl
Chorus
[Eb] [Cm] [Eb] [G]
[C]They heard me singing and they told me to [Am]stop
Quit these pretentious things and [F]just punch the [C]clock
Sometimes I wonder if the world's so [Am]small
Can we ever get a[F]way from the [C]sprawl?
Chorus
[C] [Am]
I need the darkness, someone [F]please cut the [C]lights
