Thunder Road

Intro:  F  Dm  F  Bb  F  Am  Bb  C

    F                Bb       F
The screen door slams, Mary's dress 
waves
                         C         
Like a vision she dances across the
              Bb
 porch as the radio plays
                             C
Roy Orbison singing for the lonely
           F                  Bb
Hey that's me and I want you only
                            F   
Don't turn me home again, I just 
              C
can't face myself alone again
       F                       Bb 
Don't run back inside, darling you
                    F
 know just what I'm here for
So you're scared and you're thinking
     C                    Bb
That maybe we ain't that young 
anymore
Show a little faith, there's magic 
       C
in the night
            F                      
You ain't a beauty, but hey you're 
  Bb
alright
       F                 C
Oh and it's alright with me
        F                          
You can hide neath your covers and 
Dm
study your pain
     F                             
Make crosses from your lovers, 
  Bb
throw roses in the rain
 F                 Am
Waste your summer praying in vain
       Bb                       
For a saviour to rise from these 
  C
streets

             F              
Well now I'm no hero, that's 
       Dm
understood
         F                     
All the redemption I can offer, 
           Bb
girl, is beneath this dirty hood
        F                Am
With a chance to make it good 
somehow
     Bb                 C
Hey what else can we do now?
        F                       Bb
Except roll down the window and 
                F             Bb F
let the wind blow back your hair
Well the night's busting open
      Am                    
These two lanes will take us 
 Bb
anywhere
We got one last chance to make it 
C
real
    F                          
To trade in these wings on some 
  Bb
wheels
              F                    
Climb in back heaven's waiting down
 C
 on the tracks
  F         Dm
Oh oh come take my hand
       F                     Bb
We're riding out tonight to case the
 promised land
F        Am               Bb    
Oh oh oh oh Thunder Road, oh 
           C
Thunder Road, oh Thunder Road,
F                      Dm
Lying out there like a killer in the
 sun
    F                   Bb
Hey I know it's late we can make it 
if we run
F        Am                   Bb
Oh oh oh oh Thunder Road, sit 
         C             F
tight take hold, Thunder Road
F    Am Bb                
Well I  got this guitar and I 
    C                      F
learned how to make it talk
       Dm                      
And my car's out back if you're 
                    Bb   C
ready to take that long walk
          Bb                      
From your front porch to my front 
C
seat
           Am                  
The door's open but the ride it 
       Dm
ain't free
    Bb            Bb/A            
And I know you're lonely for words
      Gm      F
 that I ain't spoken
      C              Bb            
But tonight we'll be free, all the 
Am             Gm
promises'll be broken
           F                     
There were ghosts in the eyes of 
Bb               F        Bb F
all the boys you sent away
They haunt this dusty beach road
       Am                 Bb
In the skeleton frames of burned out
 Chevrolets
They scream your name at night in 
    C
the street
                 F                 
Your graduation gown lies in rags 
        Bb
at their feet and in the
Am                             
Lonely cool before dawn you hear 
        Bb
their engines roaring on but when 
you
Gm                       C       
Get to the porch they're gone on 
    Bb                 Gm
the wind so Mary climb in
       Bb                          
It's a town full of losers and I'm 
C                      F
pulling out of here to win
