Gm


Verse 1:

Gm
Born and raised in a heat-struck hometown
Bb                                Ebmaj7
Where you're either dying or dead
                                    F
Got your number in a bar so rundown
                           Gm
You're the hymn in my head
Said you had a ticket, take it
   Bb                           Ebmaj7
Or leave it, but I could provide
I know you got a reputation
       Fsus4       F
You're social suicide

Pre-Chorus:

Eb                          F                    Gm   F
Kiss me in the streetlight, sweet like something real
Eb                     F              Gm
Bring me to beachside, tell me how to feel


Chorus:

                Gm
I come from the suburbs, I'm not like the others
     F
I am reckless
            Dm
My baby is iconic, the liquor to my tonic
               Eb
Initials on my necklace
                   Gm
Dressed up for the fair, singing while you stare
        F
So captivated
              Dm
Love a little trouble but I'm seeing double
             Eb
I'm staying sedated


Verse 2:

Gm                                  Bb
Need me like you need the names you drop
              Eb
Your detainee
You're my palms and paradise
         F                  Gm
I'm your beaten blue beauty
In my blood is a seasick sinner
Bb                 Eb
Lovelorn and alone
You could run forever
        F
I can't ditch flesh and bone


Pre-Chorus:

Eb                          F                    Gm      F
Kiss me in the streetlight, sweet like something strange
Eb                     F                 Gm
Bring me to beachside, please don't ever change


Chorus:

                Gm
I come from the suburbs, I'm not like the others
     F
I am reckless
            Dm
My baby is iconic, the liquor to my tonic
               Eb
Initials on my necklace
                   Gm
Dressed up for the fair, singing while you stare
        F
So captivated
              Dm
Love a little trouble but I'm seeing double
             Eb
I'm staying sedated


Bridge:

     Gm
They live for my longing and long for my strife
F
Steal me away, I'm your wish-listed wife
Gm
Overdose on the sharp end of a knife
Bb                          F
Buy out my loan sharks, I'm larger than life
    Eb
I'm first on the paper but last on the stage
F
Get off on the problems they preach on the page
       Gm
I'm an addict for passion and romance and rage
   Bb
Complain 'bout your world making maximum wage


Chorus:

                Gm
I come from the suburbs, never like the others
     F
I am restless
              Dm
My baby is an icon, the tamer to my python
                Eb
But I'm getting breathless
                  Gm
Dressed up to the nines, drowning in cheap wines
         F
So complicated
                 Dm
Love like it's a show, the sitcom's my ammo
    Eb
But you still dominated
