[I. Jesus of Suburbia]


[Verse 1]

C
I'm the son of rage and love
Am
The Jesus of Suburbia
F
From the Bible of none of the above
G
On a steady diet of

C
Soda pop and Ritalin
Am
No one ever died for my
F
Sins in hell, as far as I can tell
G
At least the ones I've gotten away with


[Chorus 1]

F                              G
And there's nothing wrong with me
F                           G
This is how I'm supposed to be
F                 G
In a land of make-believe

That don't believe in me


[Instrumental]

C   G   F       (x2)


[Verse 2]

C
Get my television fix
Am
Sitting on my crucifix
F
The living room or my private womb
G
While the moms and brads are away

C
To fall in love and fall in debt
Am
To alcohol and cigarettes
F
And Mary Jane to keep me insane
G
And doing someone else's cocaine


[Chorus 1]

F                              G
And there's nothing wrong with me
F                           G
This is how I'm supposed to be
F                 G
In a land of make-believe

That don't believe in me


[Instrumental]

C   G   F       (x2)

C   Am   F   G

C   E   Am   G   F   G


[II. City of the Damned]


[Verse 3]

       C
At the center of the earth
       C/B
In the parking lot
       Am         G
Of the 7-11 where I was taught
F                      G
  The motto was just a lie

         C
It says "home is where your heart is"
    C/B
But what a shame
      Am                       G
Cause everyone's heart doesn't beat the same
F                     G
  It's beating out of time


[Chorus 2]

Am      G
   City of the dead
C                F
  At the end of another lost highway
Am          G            F
   Signs misleading to nowhere

Am      G
   City of the damned
C                    F
  Lost children with dirty faces today
Am        G               F
   No one really seems to care


[Verse 4]

  C
I read the graffiti
       C/B
In the bathroom stall
         Am                   G
Like the holy scriptures of a shopping mall
F                        G
  And so it seemed to confess

   C
It didn't say much
       C/B
But it only confirmed
         Am                         G
That the center of the earth is the end of the world
F                         G
  And I could really care less


[Chorus 2]

Am      G
   City of the dead
C                F
  At the end of another lost highway
Am          G            F
   Signs misleading to nowhere

Am      G
   City of the damned
C                    F
  Lost children with dirty faces today
Am        G               F
   No one really seems to care


[III. I Don't Care]


[Instrumental]

G   C   G   C   F   C   G

[Interlude]

G            C
I don't care if you don't
G            C
I don't care if you don't
F            C            G
I don't care if you don't care   (x4)

F   G
I don’t care...


[Instrumental]

C   C   C   Ab   G   (x2)


[Verse 5]

C                      Ab   G
Everyone is so full of shit
C                      Ab   G
Born and raised by hypocrites
C                         Ab   G
Hearts recycled but never saved
C                      Ab   G
From the cradle to the grave
C                          Ab   G
We are the kids of war and peace
C                          Ab   G
From Anaheim to the Middle East
C                           Ab   G
We are the stories and disciples
C                    Ab   G
Of the Jesus of Suburbia


[Pre-Chorus 3]

F            G     C   G
Land of make-believe
F            G          C   G
And it don't believe in me
F            G    C   G
Land of make-believe
F            G
And I don't believe


[Chorus 3]

    F   G   C
And I don’t care (x4)
    F   G   C   G
And I don’t care


[IV. Dearly Beloved]


[Verse 6]

G                      Bm
Dearly beloved are you listening?
C                       G             D
I can’t remember a word that you were saying
G                     Bm
Are we demented or am I disturbed?
C                           G          D
The space that's in between insane and insecure

G   Bm   C   G D

G                          Bm
Oh therapy, can you please fill the void?
C                   G          D
Am I retarded or am I just overjoyed
G                      Bm
Nobody's perfect and I stand accused
C                              G              D
For lack of a better word, and that's my best excuse


[Instrumental]

[V. Tales of Another Broken Home]


G   F   C   (x4)

G           F   C   G   F   C
To live and not to  breathe
G            F   C   G   F   C
Is to die in tragedy
G          F   C   G   F   C
To run, to run away
G            F   C   G   F   C
To find what you believe


[Chorus 4]

    C   G   C   G   C     G    D   G   D   G   D
And I..             Leave be.. hind

This hu..rri..cane of fu..cking lies

G         F   C   G   F   C
I lost my faith to this
G              F   C   G   F   C
This town that don't exist
G           F   C   G   F   C
So I run, I run away
G               F   C   G
To the light of masochist


[Chorus 4]

And I..             Leave be.. hind

This hu..rri..cane of fu..cking lies

And I..             Walked this line

G    C    G    C   G   C   G     D   G   D   G   D   G
A    mil..lion and one fu..cking times       But not this time

  G           C
I won’t apologize
C                 D                G
When there ain't nowhere you can go

C        D
Running away from pain
     G                 C
When you've been victimized
C            D
Tales from another broken...
