INTRO: E E E B A C#m B X3 (Turn distortion on here)E E A A B
MI
Lights out tonight
LA SI
Trouble in the heartland
MI
Got a head-on collision
LA SI
Smashin' in my guts, man
MI LA
I'm caught in a cross fire
SI
That I don't understand
But there's one thing I know for sure girl
MI
I don't give a damn
LA SI
For the same old played out scenes
MI
I don't give a damn
LA SI
For just the in betweens
MI LA
Honey, I want the heart, I want the soul
SI
I want control right now
LA
Talk about a dream
Try to make it real
SI
You wake up in the night
With a fear so real
LA
Spend your life waiting
SI LA
For a moment that just don't come
SI LA SI
Well, don't waste your time waiting
(Chorus)
MI LA DO#m SI
Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
MI LA
Let the broken hearts stand
DO#m SI
As the price you've gotta pay
MI
We'll keep pushin' till it's understood
LA DO#m SI MI MI LA LA SI
And these badlands start treating us good
VERSE II:Use the same chords form the first verse.(In some live versions, Bruce does a
little note picking when the chords change. It seemed easy enoungh to tab out.
LA 7-----
Workin' in the fiedls E|-7-5-7|
Till you get your back burned
Workin' `neath the wheel
Till you get your facts learned
Baby I got my facts
Learned real good right now
You better get it straight darling
Poor man wanna be rich,
Rich man wanna be king
And a king ain't satisfied
Till he rules everything
I wanna go out tonight,
I wanna find out what I got
Well I believe in the love that you gave me
I believe in the love that you gave me
I believe in the faith that could save me
I believe in the hope
And I pray that some day
It may raise me above these
CHORUS: Same chords as before.
INTERLUDE:
MI LA SI
mmmmmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmmm X4
VERSE III:Still the same chords. Turn your guitar up, and palm mute The chords as you
play them.
For the ones who had a notion,
A notion deep inside
That it ain't no sin
To be glad you're alive
I wanna find one face
That ain't looking through me
I wanna find one place,
I wanna spit in the face of these badlands
CHORUS: Same chords. End with:
BADLANDS! WHOA WHOA WHOA WHOA X4
OUTRO(optional):This is yet another thing Bruce does in some live versions.
