Thunder Road

D Bm D G D F#m  G  A  *

    D                 G       D
The screen door slams, Mary's dress 
waves
                          A        
Like a vision she dances across the
              G
 porch as the radio plays
                            A
Roy Orbison singing for the lonely
           D                 G
Hey that's me and I want you only
                            D   
Don't turn me home again, I just 
              A
can't face myself alone again

      D                        G  
Don't run back inside, darling you
                    D       G D
 know just what I'm here for

So you're scared and you're thinking
     A                   G
That maybe we ain't that young 
anymore
Show a little faith, there's magic 
       A
in the night
            D                      
You ain't a beauty, but hey you're 
  G
alright
       D                   A
Oh and that's alright with me

        D                          
You can hide neath your covers and 
Bm
study your pain
     D                             
Make crosses from your lovers, 
  G
throw roses in the rain
D                 F#m
Waste your summer praying in vain
      G                         
For a saviour to rise from these 
 A
streets

             D              
Well now I'm no hero, that's 
      Bm
understood
        D                      
All the redemption I can offer, 
            G
girl, is beneath this dirty hood
       D                 F#m
With a chance to make it good 
somehow
    G                   A
Hey what else can we do now?

       D                        G 
Except roll down the window and 
                D             G D
let the wind blow back your hair

Well the night's busting open
      F#m                   
These two lanes will take us 
 G
anywhere
We got one last chance to make it 
A
real
   D                           
To trade in these wings on some 
 G
wheels
              D                    
Climb in back heaven's waiting down
 A
 on the tracks

D          Bm
Oh oh come take my hand
      D                     G
We re riding out tonight to case the
 promised land
D        F#m              G     
Oh oh oh oh Thunder Road, oh 
           A
Thunder Road, oh Thunder Road,
D                      Bm
Lying out there like a killer in the
 sun
    D                   G
Hey I know it's late we can make it 
if we run
D        F#m                  G 
Oh oh oh oh Thunder Road, sit 
         A             D
tight take hold, Thunder Road

D       G                  
Well I  got this guitar and I 
   A                      D
learned how to make it talk
       Bm                      
And my car's out back if you're 
                    G    A
ready to take that long walk
          G                       
From your front porch to my front 
A
seat
           F#m                 
The door's open but the ride it 
       Bm
ain't free
    G                              
And I know you're lonely for words 
     Em
that I ain't spoken
      A
But tonight we'll be free, all the 
promises'll be broken
           D                     G
There were ghosts in the eyes of 
                D        G D
all the boys you sent away

They haunt this dusty beach road
       F#m                G
In the skeleton frames of burned out
 Chevrolets
They scream your name at night in 
    A
the street
                D                  
Your graduation gown lies in rags 
        G
at their feet and in the
F#m                            
Lonely cool before dawn you hear 
        G
their engines roaring on but when 
you
Em                       A       
Get to the porch they're gone on 
    G                  Em
the wind so Mary climb in
       G                           
It's a town full of losers and I'm 
A                      D
pulling out of here to win
