C Dm F x2
C Dm
Oh! Well, remember the guy who was a football star?
F
He had it made with the ladies but he never got far.
C Dm
Five years past, now he's gotten kind of fat,
F
working eight days a week at the Laundromat.
C Dm
With his Momma and his Daddy breathing down his neck,
F
about everything he does so much it makes him sick.
C Dm
So he sits home alone, with the game on TV,
F
as the crowd goes wild he says, "That coulda been me!"
C Dm
Just another day in Suburbia, it's a beautiful day in Suburbia
Em F
Best not let it get the best of you
C G
Is it everything you thought it would be?
C Dm
Remember playing games at the rich kid's home?
F
His Dad owned a bank, while his mom was alone.
C Dm
Everyday with the mailman, the trash man, lawn guy...
F
Kid didn't look a damn thing like his Dad (I knew why)
C Dm
He grew up got a job making eighty grand a year
F
Had a wife and kid, all the guys call a queer
C Dm
But his dad never knew, he was too blind to see
he said, "Guess it kinda ran in the family".
C Dm
Just another day in Suburbia, it's a beautiful day in Suburbia
Em F
Best not let it get the best of you
C G
Is it everything you thought it would be?
C Dm
Remember the girl down the street with the kids
F
That used to come outside, but she never did?
C Dm
(why?) 'Cause she was trying to hide the bruises where her old man beat her,
F
'cause he hit her in the face with an old space heater. (ow!)
C Dm
and he came home drunk and tried to force sex on her
F
But he didn't see a 44 stuffed in the covers
C Dm
So she waited 'til he came, he lie there naked
