Born to Run
Bruce Springsteen
[D] [D] [G] [A7sus4][A] x 2
In the [D] day we sweat it out on the streets of a [G] runaway American [A] dream At [D] night we ride through mansions of glory in [G] suicide [A] machines [G]Sprung from cages on [D] highway 9, chrome [Em] wheeled,
fuel injected and [D] steppin' out over the line [D7] Oh!
[G] Baby this town rips the [D]bones from our back It's a [Em] death trap, it's a [D] suicide rap We gotta [D] get out while we're [Bm] young
`cause [G]tramps like us, [A] baby we were born to run
[D] [D] [G] [A7sus4][A] x2
Wendy [D] let me in. I wanna be your friend. I want to [G] guard your dreams and [A] visions.
Just [D] wrap your legs 'round these velvet rims and [G] strap your hands across my [A] engines. [G] Together we could [D] break this trap We'll [Em] run till we drop, [D] baby we'll never go back. [D7] Oh!
Will you [G] walk with me out on the [D] wire?
`Cause [Em] baby I'm just a scared and [D] lonely rider but I [D] gotta find out how it [Bm] feels
I want to [G] know if love is wild babe, I [A] want to know if love is real
[D] [D] [G] [A7sus4] [A] x2
Instrumental [D] [D] [G] [A7sus4][A] [D] [D] [G] [A]
[Bm]- - [Bm]....[A] [D][Am7]
[C] Beyond the [C] Palace heavy [C] powered [C]drones scream [F]down the boule-[F]-vard
[F]The [F]girls [G] comb their hair [G]in rear [G] view mirrors [G] And the boys [Bb]try to look [Bb]so hard [Bb]
The [C] amusement [C] park rises bold [C] and stark [C] Kids are [F] huddled on the beach [F] in the mist [F]
I wanna [G] die with you [G] Wendy on the street [G] tonight [G] in an [Bb] everlasting [Bb]kiss [Bb] Huh!
[C][C] [C][C].....1!-2!-3!-4!
The [D] highway's jammed with broken heroes on a [G] last chance power drive [A]
Well every-[D]-body's out on the run tonight but there's [G] no place left to hide [A]
[G]Together Wendy we can [D] live with the sadness I'll [Em]love you with all the [D] madness in my soul [D7] Oh!
[G] Someday girl, I [D] don't know when, we're gonna [Em] Get to that place where we [D] really want to [D] Go and we'll walk in the [Bm] sun
But till then [G] tramps like us [A] baby we were born to [D] run
[Bm] Ah honey [G] tramps like us [A] baby we were born to [D] run
[Bm] Come on Wendy [G]tramps like us [A] baby we were born to run
[D] [D] [G] [A] (ad lib - Woah oh a woahs) [D] [D] [G] [A] [D] [D] [G] [A] [D] [D] [G] [A] [D] [D] [G] [A]
