C Dm F x2
Oh! [C]Well, remember the guy wh[Dm]o was a football star?
[F]He had it made with the ladies but he never got far.
Five[C] years past, now he's got[Dm]ten kind of fat,
[F]working eight days a week at the Laundromat.
With[C] his Momma and his Daddy [Dm]breathing down his neck,
[F]about everything he does so much it makes him sick.
So h[C]e sits home alone, with t[Dm]he game on TV,
[F]as the crowd goes wild he says, "That coulda been me!"
[C]Just another day in Suburbia, i[Dm]t's a beautiful day in Suburbia
[Em]Bes[F]t not let it get the best of you
Is it [C]everything you thought it would [G]be?
Reme[C]mber playing games at the[Dm] rich kid's home?
[F]His Dad owned a bank, while his mom was alone.
Ever[C]yday with the mailman, th[Dm]e trash man, lawn guy...
[F]Kid didn't look a damn thing like his Dad (I knew why)
He g[C]rew up got a job making e[Dm]ighty grand a year
[F]Had a wife and kid, all the guys call a queer
But [C]his dad never knew, he wa[Dm]s too blind to see
he said, "Guess it kinda ran in the family".
[C]Just another day in Suburbia, i[Dm]t's a beautiful day in Suburbia
[Em]Bes[F]t not let it get the best of you
Is it [C]everything you thought it would [G]be?
Reme[C]mber the girl down the st[Dm]reet with the kids
[F]That used to come outside, but she never did?
(why[C]?) 'Cause she was trying [Dm]to hide the bruises where her old man beat her,
[F]'cause he hit her in the face with an old space heater. (ow!)
and [C]he came home drunk and tr[Dm]ied to force sex on her
[F]But he didn't see a 44 stuffed in the covers
So s[C]he waited 'til he came, h[Dm]e lie there naked
[F]Before she blew his head off, she told him she'd been faking
all [C]along, so long for everyt[Dm]hing you done wrong
[F]Here's a bullet, go to hell, 'cause its where you belong!
[C]Just another day in Suburbia, i[Dm]t's a beautiful day in Suburbia
[Em]Bes[F]t not let it get the best of you
Is it [C]everything you thought it would [G]be?
[C]Just another day in Suburbia, Y[Dm]eah, this is how we're living in Suburbia
[Em]Bes[F]t not let it get the best of you
Is it [C]everything you want it to be[G]?
[C]Remember the cutest coupl[Dm]e in the world
Ya know [F]he was the punk and she was Daddy's little girl.
and [C]graduation came and she w[Dm]anted him to stay
he had bi[F]gger better dreams waiting out in L.A.
She c[C]ried and he cried as the [Dm]plane flew away
She [F]never, ever, wanted it to end this way.
[C]Two years later she r[Dm]eads in the news,
he'd gone [F]on to be a big star but nobody knew.
'cause he c[C]hanged up his name but his h[Dm]eart stayed the same,
'cause[F] every song he wrote, was about her, he claimed.
he n[C]ever got to tell her 'cause he [Dm]died that year,
from [F]all of the coke, and the pills, and the beer,
and t[C]he whole world cried, but[Dm] just for one day
'caus[F]e sooner or later, the pain goes away.
[C]Just another day in Suburbia, i[Dm]t's a beautiful day in Suburbia
[Em]Bes[F]t not let it get the best of you
Is it [C]everything you thought it would [G]be?
[C]Just another day in Suburbia, Y[Dm]eah, this is how we're living in Suburbia
[Em]Bes[F]t not let it get the best of you
Is it [C]everything you want it to be[G]?
