Arcade Fire - Suburban War: chords

                Dm             C/E    F
Let's go for a drive, see the town tonight
        C/E        Dm
There's nothing to do but I don't mind when
C/E         F
I'm with you

This town’s so strange
They built it to change
And while we sleep
We know the streets get rearranged
With my old friends
It was so different then
Before your war
Against the suburbs began
Before it began

Now the music divides
Us into tribes
You grew your hair
So I grew mine
You said the past won’t rest
Until we jump the fence
And leave it behind
With my old friends
I can remember when
You cut your hair
I never saw you again
Now the cities we live in
Could be distant stars
And I search for you
In every passing car

Chorus:
F    G          Am  C G
The night's so long
F          G          Am
Yeah, the night's so long
C     G    F              G         Am     C G
I've been living in the shadows of your song
 F              G         Am      C G
Living in the shadows of your song

In the suburbs, I
I learned to drive
And you told me we would never survive
So grab your mother’s keys, we leave tonight

But you started a war
That we can’t win
They keep erasing all the streets
We grew up in
Now the music divides
Us into tribes
You choose your side
I’ll choose my side

       A#           Am          A#     Dm C/E F
But my old friends they don't know me now
       A#               Am       A#       Dm C/E F
But my old friends are staring through me now
       A#           Am         A#      Dm C/E F
But my old friends they don't know me now
       A#           Am         A#      Dm C/E F
But my old friends they don't know me now
Am          A#     Dm  C/E F
They don't know me now
