The screen door slams, Mary's dress waves
FA(D) DO(A) SIb(G)
Like a vision she dances across the porch as the radio plays
DO(A) FA(D) SIb(G)
Roy Orbison singing for the lonely, hey that's me and I want you only
FA(D) DO(A) (Asus4)(A)
Don't send me home again, I just can't face myself alone again
FA(D) SIb(G) FA(D) FAsus4 (Dsus4)
Don't run back inside, darlin' , you know just what I'm here for
FA(D) DO(A) SIb(G)
So you're scared and you're thinking that maybe we ain't that young any more
DO(A)
Show a little faith, there's magic in the night,
FA(D) SIb(G)
You ain't a beauty but hey you're alright
FA(D) DO(A) DOsus4(Asus4) DO(A)
Oh and that's alright with me
FA(D) REm(Bm) REmsus4(Bmsus4)
You can hide neath your covers and study your pain
FA(D) SIb(G)
Make crosses from your lovers throw roses at the rain
FA(D) DO(A) SIb(G) DO(A)
Waste your summer praying in vain, for a saviour to rise from these streets
FA(D) REm(Bm) REmsus4(Bsus4)
Well now I'm no hero, that's understood
FA(D) SIb(G)
All the redemption I got to offer girl is beneath this dirty hood
FA(D) DO(A) SIb(G) DO(A)
With a chance to make it real somehow, hey what else can we do now
FA(D) SIb(G) FA(D) FAsus4(Dsus4)
Except roll down the window and let the wind blow back your hair
FA(D) DO(A) SIb(G)
Well the night's busting open these two lanes will take us anywhere
DO(A) FA(D) SIb(G)
We got one last chance to make it real, to trade in these wings on some wheels
FA(D) DO(A)
Climb in back, heaven's waiting down on the tracks
FA(D) REm(Bm) FA(D) SIb(G)
Oh oh come take my hand, riding out tonight to case the Promised Land
FA(D) DO(A) SIb(G) DO(A)
Oh oh oh oh Thunder Road, oh Thunder road, oh Thunder Road
FA(D) REm(Bm)
Lyin' out there like a killer in the sun
FA(D) SIb(G)
Hey I know it's late, we can make it if we run
FA(D) DO(A) SIb(G) DO(A) FA(D) FAsus4(Dsus4)
Oh oh oh oh Thunder Road, sit tight, take hold, Thunder Road
/MI /FA#)
SIb(G) DO(A) FA(D) FAsus4(Dsus4)
Well I got this guitar and I learned how to make it talk
REm(Bm) SIb(G) DO(A)
And my car's out back if you're ready to take that long walk
SIb(G) DO(A)
From your front porch to my front seat,
FA(D) SIb(G)
The door's open but the ride it ain't free
SIb(G)
And I know you're lonely for words that I ain't spoken
DO(A)
But tonight we'll be free, all the promises will be broken
FA(D) SIb(G) FA(D) FAsus4(Dsus4)
There were ghosts in the eyes of all the boys you sent away
FA(D) DO(A) SIb(G)
They haunt this dusty beach road in the skeleton frames of burned-out Chevrolets
DO(A)
They scream your name at night in the street,
FA(D) SIb(G)
Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet
SIb(G)
And in the lonely cool before dawn you hear their engines roaring on
DO(A) SIb(G)
But when you get to the porch, they're gone on the wind
SOLm (Em)
So Mary climb in,
SIb(G) DO(A) FA(D) FAsus4 FA
It's a town full of losers and I'm pulling out of here to win (Dsus4) (D)
