F#
F#
Sprawling on the fringes of the city
Bm A
In geometric order
Bm A
An insulated border
Bm A
In between the bright lights
G A Bm G A F#
And the far unlit unknown
F#
Growing up it all seems so one-sided
Bm A
Opinions all provided
Bm A
The future pre-decided
Bm A
Detached and subdivided
G A Bm
In the mass production zone
G A Bm G A Bm
Nowhere is the dreamer or the misfit so alone
(Subdivisions)
G A Bm
In the high school halls
G A Bm
In the shopping malls
G A Bm
Conform or be cast out
(Subdivisions)
G A Bm
In the basement bars
G A Bm
In the backs of cars
G A Bm
Be cool or be cast out
G A Bm
Any escape might help to smooth
A Bm
The unattractive truth
A G A Bm
But the suburbs have no charms to soothe
A Bm
The restless dreams of youth
(G A Bm A Bm A)
(F#)
F#
Drawn like moths we drift into the city
Bm A
The timeless old attraction
Bm A
Cruising for the action
Bm A
Lit up like a firefly
G A Bm G A F#
Just to feel the living night
F#
Some will sell their dreams for small desires
Bm A
Or lose the race to rats
Bm A
Get caught in ticking traps
Bm A
And start to dream of somewhere
G A Bm
To relax their restless flight
G A Bm G A Bm
Somewhere out of a memory of lighted streets on quiet nights...
