Thunder Road Bruce Springsteen
Capo 1
[E]E [A]g#[E]m [A]A B
A [E]screen door slams,[A] Mary's [E]dress waves
Like a vision she dances across the porch as the [A]radio plays
Roy Orbison singing for the [B]lonely, hey that's [E]me and I want you [A]only
Don't turn me home again, I [E]just can't face myself a[B]lone again
Don't [E]run back inside, darlin, [A]you know just what I'm [E]here for
So you're scared and you're thinking that
Maybe we ain't that [A]young any more
Show a little faith, there's magic in the [B]night
You ain't a [E]beauty but hey you're all [A]right
Oh and [E]that's alright with [B]me
You can [E]hide beneath your covers and[C#m] study your pain,
Make [E]crosses from your lovers, throw [A]roses in the rain
[E]Waste your summer[G#m] praying in vain[A] for a savior to rise [B]from these streets
Well now [E]I'm no hero that's[C#m] understood
All the re[E]demption I can offer girl is [A]beneath this dirty hood
[E]With a chance to make [G#m]it good somehow [A]hey what else can we do [B]now except
[E]Roll down the window and [A]let the wind blow [E]back your hair
Well the night's busting open these [G#m]two lanes can take us [A]anywhere
We got one last chance to make it [B]real
to [E]trade in these wings on some [A]wheels
Climb in back, heaven's [E]waiting down on the [B]tracks
[E]Oh come [C#m]take my hand We're [E]ridin out tonight to [A]case the promised land
[E]Oh oh thunder [G#m]Road, [A]oh thunder road, oh thunder [B]road
[E]Lyin' out there like a [A/C#]killer in the sun
Hey [E]I know it's late, we can [A]make it if we run
[E]Oh oh [G#m]thunder road, sit [A]tight, take [B]hold, thunder [E]road
Well I [A]got this guitar and I [B]learned how to make it [E]talk
And my [C#m]car's out back if you're ready to take that [A]long [B]walk
From your [A]front porch to my front [B]seat
Door's [G#m]open but the ride ain't [C#m]free
Well [A]I know you're [A/G#]hungry [F#m]for words [E]that I ain't spoken
Well [B]tonight we'll be free, all the promises will be broken
There were [E]ghosts in the eyes of all the [A]boys you sent [E]away
They haunt this [E]dusty beach road in the [G#m]skeleton frames of
[A]burned-out Chevrolets
They scream your name at night in the [B]street
Your graduation [E]gown lies in rags at their [A]feet
And in the [G#m]lonely cool before dawn you hear their [A]engines roaring on
But when you[A] get to the porch, they're [B]gone on the [A]wind so Mary climb [F#m]in
It's a [A]town full of losers I'm [B]pulling out of here to w[E]in
Outro:
[E] [B] [A] [B]
