In the [E]day we sweat it out on the streets of a [A]runaway American dream[Bsus].
At [E]night we ride through mansions of glory in [A]suicide ma[B]chines.
[A]Sprung from cages on [E/G#]Highway 9, chrome [F#m]wheeled, fuel injected,
and [E/G#]steppin' out over the line[E].
[D/E]Oh, [A]baby this town rips the [E/G#]bones from your back.
It's a [F#m]death trap, it's a [E/G#]suicide rap.
We gotta [E]get out while we're young[C#m].
'Cause tramps[A] like us, [B]baby, we were born to [E]run.[A] [Bsus] [B]
[E] [A] [Bsus] [B]
Wendy, [E]let me in, I wanna be your friend,
I wanna [A]guard your dreams and [Bsus]visions.
Just [E]wrap your legs 'round these velvet rims, and
[A]strap your hands 'cross my [Bsus]engines.
To[A]gether we could [E/G#]break this trap.
We'll [F#m]run till we drop, and, [E/G#]baby we'll never go [E]back.
[D/E]Oh, will you [A]walk with me out on the [E/G#]wire?
'Cause, baby[F#m] I'm just a scared and [E/G#]lonely rider,
but I [E]gotta know how it feels[C#m], I want to [A]know if love is wild, babe,
I [B]want to know if love is real.
[E] [A] Oh, come and show me.[Bsus] [B]

Be[Dsus]yond the Pa[D]lace hemi[Dsus]powered drones[D] [Gsus]scream down the [G]boulevard[Gsus].[G]
Girls [Asus]comb their hair[A] in rear[Asus]view [A]mirrors and the [Csus]boys try to [C]look so [Csus]hard.[C]
The a[Dsus]musement park[D] rises [Dsus]bold and stark[D] as kids are
[Gsus]huddled on the [G]beach in a [Gsus]mist.[G]
I wanna [Asus]die with you, [A]Wendy, on the [Asus]streets to[A]night in an [Csus]everl[C]asting [Csus]kiss.[C]

The [E]highways jammed with broken heroes on a [A]last chance power drive[Bsus].[B]
Ev'ry[E]body's on the run tonight, but there's [A]no place left to [Bsus]hide.[B]
To[A]gether, Wendy, we can [E/G#]live with the sadness,
I'll [F#m]love you with all the [E/G#]madness in my [E]soul.
[D/E]Oh, [A]some day, girl, I [E/G#]don't know when, we're gonna [F#m]get to that place
where we [E/G#]really wanna [E]go, and we'll walk in the [C#m]sun.
But till then, [A]tramps like us, [B]baby, we were born to [E]run![C#m]
Ah, honey, [A]tramps like us, [B]baby, we were born to [E]run![C#m]
Come on, Wendy. [A]Tramps like us, [B]baby, we were born to [E]run!
[A]Woh.[Bsus] [B]
[E]Hm, oh, oh, oh, oh[A].
[Bsus]Woh, oh, [B]oh, oh, oh[E],
[A]Hm.[Bsus] [B]
[E]Woh.
Woh[A].
Woh, oh, [B]oh, oh, [E]oh.
