STEREOTYPES
by BLUR
from THE GREAT ESCAPE




B7
The suburbs they are dreaming


They are a twinkle in her eye

Abm G
She's been feeling frisky

F#
Since her husband said goodbye

B7
She wears a low cut t-shirt runs a little B&B

Abm G F#
She's most accomodating when she's in her lingerie



A
Wife swapping is the future


You know that it would suit you



B7
Yes, they're stereotypes


There must be something more to life

Abm E B
All you life you are dreaming

E B
And then you stop dreaming

C#
From time to time you know

D E
You should be going on another bender



B7
The suburbs they are sleeping


But she's dressing up tonight

Abm G F#
She likes a man in uniform he loves to wear it tight

B7
They are on the lovers sofa they are on the patio

Abm G F#
And when the fun is over watch themselves on video


A
The neighbours may be staring


But they are just past caring
Tunning: Standard (E A D G B e)

The pattern of the chord leading the verses and choruses is this:

Bm7add9

|-10--10--------|
|-10--10--------|
|--7---7--------|
|--9---9--------|
|--9---9--------|
|--7---7--------|

As this chord may be a little difficult for most players (such as me), I recommend
using this variation of Bm7add9:

|-10--10--------|
|-10--10--------|
|--x---x--------|
|--9---9--------|
|--9---9--------|

Hope it will be helpful. Now on to the actual tab:
