_ _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ the radio play.
_ _ Roy Orbison singing for the lone.
Hey, that's me and I want you to own me.
Don't [F#] send me home again.
I [C#] just can't face myself alone. _
[G#] _ _ _ _ _ [C#] Don't run back inside darling you know just what I'm here _ for.
_ _ I'm sure you're scared and you're thinking that [D#] baby we ain't [C#] that young anymore.
_ I'm [F#] sure a little faith [C#] is magic [G#] in the night.
[C#] You ain't a beauty but hey you're alright. _ _ _
_ Oh, it's _ alright [G#] with me.
_ _ _ _ You can [C#]
hide in covers [A#m] and study your [C#] pain.
At the crosses of your lovers [F#] throw roses in the [C#] rain.
_ Waste your [Fm] summer praying in vain for a [F#] savior to [C#] rise from these streets.
Well, I'm no hero [A#m] that's understood.
[C#] All the redemption I got off is beneath this dirty hood.
With a chance to [Fm] make it good somehow.
[F#] Hey, what else can [C#] we [G#] do now? _
[C#] Step right out the window [F#] and [C#] let the wind blow back your hair. _ _ _
Well, the night's busted open [Fm] these two lanes can take [F#] us anywhere.
_ [C#] _ _ _
We got one last chance to make it real. _
_ Trading these wings on some wheels.
_ [F#] _ Climbing [C#] back, heaven's waiting down [G#] on the track. _ _ _ _
_ [C#] Oh, come [A#m] take my hand.
[C#] We're riding out tonight to the place I promised land.
_ Oh, [Fm] _ thunder roll.
[F#] Oh, thunder [C#] roll. _ _ _
_ I'm right out [A#m] there like a child in the [C#] sun.
And I know it's late [F#] we can make [C#] it if we run.
Oh, [Fm] _ thunder [F#] roll.
Sit tight, [G#] take hold. _
[C#] Thunder roll.
_ _ _ Well, [F#] I got this guitar [C#] and I learned how to make it talk.
_ _ _ _ And [A#m] my car's out back if you're ready to take [C#m] that [F#] _ long [G#] walk.
_ [C#m] From your front porch to my front seat.
_ The [C#] door's open but the ride ain't free.
_ [F#]
Yeah, I know you're lonely for words that I ain't spoke.
[C#]
Tonight we'll be free.
All the promises [G#] will be broken.
_ _ _ [C#] There were ghosts in the eyes of all the boys that sent away. _
_ _ They hopped this dusty beach road [Fm] with skeleton frames.
[F#] _ [C#] Burned out _ Chevrolet's.
They screamed your name at night in the streets.
Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet.
_ _ [F#] _ _ [G#m]
[Fm] And in the lonely crew before dawn, you [F#] hear their engines roaring on.
But [D#] when you get to the [G#] porch, they're gone [F#] on their way.
_ _ [C#] So Mary, [D#] climb [D#m] in. _ _ _ _
[C#] It's a town full of losers.
I'm pulling out of here to win. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Thanks, y'all.
