[E]
[A] [B] [E]
[A] [E]
[E] In the day we sweat it out on the [A] streets of Longwood, [B] Mercury
[E] At night we ride through mansions and glory, [A] suicide [B] machines
[Bm] [A]
Sprung from [C#m] cages on highway night, [F#m] cold beer through the checkers
[C#m]
Steppin' out [E] over the line
Woah, [A] maybe this town [C#m] rips the bones from your back
[F#m] It's a death trap, it's [C#m] a suicide [E] rap
Gotta get out while [C#m] we're young
Cause [A] tramps like [B] us, maybe we were [E] born to run
[A] [B] [E]
[A] [B]
[E] When they let me in, I won't be your [A] friend
I wanna guard your dreams [B] and visions
[E] Just wrap your legs around these velvet rings
[A] Strap your hands across [B] my ankles
[A] Together we [C#m] could break this trap
[F#m] Run till we drop, [C#m] baby we'll [E] never go back
[A] Woah, I'll be [C#m] out on the wire
[F#m] Girl, I'm just a scared [C#m] lonely writer
[E] Gotta find out how it [C#m] feels
I wanna [A] know if love is wild
[B] I wanna know [E] if love is real
[A] Let [B] [E] me show you
[A] [B] What's up!
[E] [A] [G#m]
[E]
[C#m]
[E] [Bm]
[D] Beyond the palace, heavy powered drones
[G] Scream down the boulevard
The [A] girls comb their hair, dip three or two mirrors
And the [C] boys try to look so hard
[D] In the park, buy some Bulls, start
Kiss [G] the river on the beach in the mist
I wanna [A] die with Drew Wendy on the street tonight
And an [C] everlasting kiss
[F]
[A#]
[F] [B] [F#]
[Bm] [G#] [F] [D#]
[C] [B]
One, two, three, [E] we're still the broken heroes
[A] The last chance [F#] power trial
[E]
Money's all on the run tonight
[A] There's no place left to [B] hide
[A] Together, Wendy, [C#m] we can live with the sadness
[F#m] Love you with all the madness [E] in my soul
Woah, [A] someday girl, [C#m] I don't know when
I'm [F#m] gonna get to that place we [C#m] really wanna [E] go
We'll walk in [C#m] the sun, feeling [A] tramps like us
[B] Baby, we were born,
[C#m] come on Wendy, [A] tramps like us
[B] Baby, we were born [E] to run
[C#m] Come [A] on Wendy, tramps like [B] us
Baby, we were born [E] to run
[C#m]
Woah, [F#] [E]
[A] yeah, [F#] [E]
[G#m] yeah, [B]
[E] woah
[A] Woah, woah
