Bruce Springsteen - Stolen Car (lyrics) chords

[C]
[D] [G]
Well, I found me a little girl [C] and I settled down
In [D] a pretty little [G] house in a pretty little town
We got married and [C] promised never to part
Then little [D] by little we [G] drifted from each other's hearts now.
I'm driving a [C] stolen car
On [G] a pitch-black night, and [D] I'm doing my best to make [G] it through
Well, [C] I'm just sitting down here at [G] the standing light
I [D] wanna get caught, but I never [G] do
At first I thought it was just [C] restlessness
That would [D] fade as time went by [G] and our love grew deep
But in the end it was something [C] more I guess
That [D] tore us apart
And made us [G] weak
And I'm [C] driving a stolen car waiting [G] on that little red light
[D] I keep telling myself [G] everything's gonna be alright
[C] But I ride by night [G] and I travel in fear that [D] in this darkness
I might just [G] disappear
[D] She asked if I remembered [C] the letters I wrote when our love was young and [D] we [G] were both
[Bm] She said last night she read [Em] those letters and they [F] made her feel a hundred [C] years old
[D]
[G] There's a river runs by that [C] little town
[D] down
into the [G] sea
It was there in the shade I lay my body down [C] as she [D] flowed on so [G] effortlessly
Now there's a party tonight out [C] of county line
There'll [D] be dancing down at seven [G] trees
From these banks I can see [C] those party lights shine.
[D] Maybe she's there
Maybe she's looking [C] for me
[G]
Last night I dreamed I made the call I swore [D] to return and stay forever [G] more
Once again, we stood on the wedding steps at [Em] Victory Hall
And [G] walked on and on through the chapel door.
I can remember how good I [G] felt inside
[D] When the preacher said son you [G] may kiss the bride
But as I leaned over to [C] touch her pretty lips
I [D] felt it all slip away through [G] my fingertips
And I'm [C] driving a stolen car
[G] Through a pitch-black night.
[D] I keep telling myself
[G] Everything's gonna be alright
But [C] I ride by night [G] and I travel in fear no [D] matter what I do
Where [G] I drive
Nobody [D] ever sees me when I [G] ride by
