Sweet Suburban Sky

Tabbed By Paul Raftery
I looked everywhere for this, and found it nowhere, so i decided to tab it out.

This is just a ROUGH guide, he actually plays it a little different each time around,
(and i cant be bothered typing that up) leaving out the bracketed notes,
different plucking rythm, etc. The general gist of it is here though.

1+2+3
1 Sweet suburban sky,
2 gonna miss you if you burn now,
3 Curse you, when it's our turn,
1 so come now wash your face,
2 Well in water's full of grace yeah,
3 'cause only time will tell,
1 When you'll be willing to sell,
2 your body for one precious taste, (pitch up)
3 then all is left to waste,
1 Sweet suburban sky........
1 Doctor feels the pain,
2 well that caused the sickening rain yea,
3 But you continue to compromise,
1 there won't be no alibis,
2 When there's no water to wash the burning sun, (pitch up)
3 from your eyes,
1 Sweet suburban sky......
1+2+3
1 So when you finally taste,
2 well all of the waste yeah now,
3 Sign of the time,
1 you won't even call it a crime,
2 The water's coming round again, (pitch up)
3 maybe you'll be gone by then
1 But they won't thank our generation,
2 well For the ignorant inclination,
3 cause when there's nowhere left to hide,
1 maybe then they'll call it genocide..
*insert usual disclaimer here*
in other words, Dont use this for anything an artist would get pissed off about :)
