Intro:
[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
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/bruce_springsteen/thunder_road_crd_ver_2.html )
E c#m
You can hide beneath your covers and study your pain,
Make [E]crosses from your lovers, throw [A]roses in the rain
E g#m A B
Waste your summer praying in vain for a savior to rise from these streets
E c#m
Well now I'm no hero that's understood
All the re[E]demption I can offer girl is [A]beneath this dirty hood
E g#m A B
With a chance to make it good somehow hey what else can we do now except
[E]Roll down the window and [A]let the wind blow [E]back your hair
g#m A
Well the night's busting open these two lanes can take us 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 c#m E A
Oh come take my hand We're ridin out tonight to case the promised land
E g#m A B
Oh oh thunder Road, oh thunder road, oh thunder 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 g#m A B E
Oh oh thunder road, sit tight, take hold, thunder road
Well I [A]got this guitar and I [B]learned how to make it [E]talk
c#m A B
And my car's out back if you're ready to take that long walk
From your [A]front porch to my front [B]seat
g#m c#m
Door's open but the ride ain't free
A A/G# f#m E
Well I know you're hunry for words 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
E g#m
They haunt this dusty beach road in the 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
g#m A
And in the lonely cool before dawn you hear their engines roaring on
A B A f#m
But when you get to the porch, they're gone on the wind so Mary climb in
It's a [A]town full of losers I'm [B]pulling out of here to w[E]in
Outro:
[E] [B] [E] [A]
[E] [B] [A] [B]
[E] [B] [E] [A]
[E] [B]
[A] [A/G#] [A/F#] [A/E]
[B] [B/A] [B/G#] [B/F#]
