There was a boy from the mid atlantic fast as hell

F
Lacrosse in the spring track in the winter
C                                    G
But football was the sport that had all the scouts watching

Got a full ride to Alabama senior year

Then he took a big hit and watched it disapear
F
Oxyconton was prescribed till the pain subsides
C                                   G
But he took them long after for the pain inside
C
His dad worked a lot so he was never at home
G
And mom drank a lot cuz she was always alone
F
So neither one noticed their sons aura of gloom
C                                             G
Brought on by crushing up pills and blowing lines in his room

       F            C                   G
In suburbia oh oh Living the american dream
       F            C                   G
Down in suburbia oh oh It aint exactly what it seems

C
Kept it on the low for a couple of months
G
Still chilled with the boys joking and smoking blunts
F
But the monkey was on his back
C                        G
Never was far from his oxy sack
C
He started acting out and he developed a twitch
G
He started treating all his friends like a son of a bitch
F
See the problem was his high was getting kind of dull
C                                             G
And he had the biggest milligram that was available
C
It wasnt enough at the end of his road
G
His dealer gave him a stamp bag of dope
F
And said dont be scared son everybody knows

Down in suburbia oh oh It aint exactly what it seems

West baltimore where lombard and payson meet
F
A hunger in his eyes looking to score a balloon
C                             G
With some cash made pawning family heirlooms

A skeleton filled with a permanent lean
C                                          G

Down in suburbia oh oh It aint exactly what it seems
