G Em Am D
G Em Am D

[Verse 1]
G                        C  
Her midnight boys are outside, 
              D                G
scraping tears up off the street.
           Em                 Am  
Standing guard beneath the window,
         D           G
 where only Linda sleeps.
      Em                   C  
The leader is a kid named Eddy, 
                  D         G
walkin like an angel in defeat.
  Em                      Am
He trashes her old man's car, 
            D
slashes Linda's name in the seat,

and he calls out

[Chorus]
  G                   D           
Linda will you let me be the one. 
   C              D
 Linda will you let me be the one.
G                    D           
Linda will you let me be the one.
   C              D
  Linda will you let me be the one.

[Verse 2]
G                          C      
In an old room full of contenders,
 D         G
  Eddy spars
       Em                   
'Til he drops to his bed and 
    Am     D               G
surrenders, draped in the scarves
          Em                  C   
That he stole from Linda's 
        D                   G
bedroom, the night he laid at her 
feet.
             Em             
While the midnight boys were 
    Am                     D
stranded, down on Cason street.

and he calls out

[Chorus]
  G                  D            
Linda will you let me be the one. 
  C              D
 Linda will you let me be the one.
  G                  D             
Linda will you let me be the one.  
C                  D
Linda will you let me be the one.

[Verse 3]
          G             C     D  
In the basement of St Mary's, 
                  G
Eddy hides from the rain.
Em                   Am          
In with the stolen sisters, until
        D              G
 the streets are dry again.
 Em                    C
Talkin fast cars and spare parts
D                 G
Empty homes and broken hearts.
  Em                  Am          
Distant worlds and strange girls, 
       D
and kneeling with Linda in the dark.

[Chorus]
  G                   D           
Linda will you let me be the one. 
    C              D
 Linda will you let me be the one.
G                      D          
Linda will you let me be the one 
 C            D
