[Verse]
B
Try to tell us our future's at stake
     G#
Well we're gonna slam dance on your grave
        E               B            F#
Because we don't give a shit about tomorrow
B
You say we're a bunch of lazy bums
         G#
Who just wanna act stupid and have some fun
      E               B            F#
Cause we don't give a shit about tomorrow

[Chorus]
B             F#
Hey suburbia, hey suburbia
E
Hey suburbia, we're in love with you
B             F#
Hey suburbia, hey suburbia
E
Hey suburbia, we're in love with you

[Verse]
We won't end up like you want us to be
But so what cause we're always gonna be happy
Cause we don't give a shit about tomorrow
Tell us we'll regret the things we did
But we're just gonna give you a big wet kiss
Cause we don't give a shit about tomorrow

[Repeat chorus]

[Lead over verse x2, then hit and hold a B chord as the drums build up.  Near
the end of the build-up, palm mute a B.]

[Outro progression: B  F#  E  F#.  Repeat until ending on B.]
