[A]
[E]
[B] In the day we swear out on the streets of [A] a runaway American dream
[E] That night we ride through masses of glory [A] in suicide machines
Spun from cages [C#m] on highway 9, [F#m] going where your feelings take [C#m] you
Stepping out over [E] the line
Woah!
[A] Maybe the sound [C#m] lifts the bones from your back
[F#m] It's a death trap, [C#m] it's a suicide rap
We [E] gotta get out while [C#m] we're young
[A] Cause traps like [B] us, maybe we were [E] born to rap
[A] [B] [E]
[A] [B] [E] If you let me in, I wanna be your friend
I [A] wanna guard your dreams [B] and visions
[E] Just wrap your legs around these velvet [A] rims
Strap your hands [B] cross-legged
[A]
Together we [C#m] could break this trap
[F#] Run till we [C#m] drop, maybe we'll [E] never go back
[Bm] Woah!
[A] We don't walk with men [C#m] on the wire
[F#] You're up to the [C#m] skin and rolling right
[E] I gotta find [C#m] out how it feels
I wanna know if love is wild
I wanna know if [E] love is real
[A]
[B] [E] Can you show me?
[A]
[E] [A]
[B] [E] [A]
[C#m] [E]
[Bm] [D] Beyond the palace, heavy power tones
[G] Scream down the boulevard
[A] The girls comb their hair, the rear view mirrors
[C] The boys try to look so hard
[D] Ten years been hard, grass is bold and stark
[G] Kids are ruttled on the beach in the mist
[A] I wanna die with you Wendy, on the street tonight
[C] It'll never last, just
[F]
[C] [F]
[F#] [E] [G]
[C] [B]
[B]
[E] Waste time with broken years
[A] My last chance to [B] power drive
[E] Everybody's out on the run tonight
[A] There's no place left [B] to hide
[A] Together Wendy, [C#m] we'll live with the sadness
[F#m] I love you with all the madness [E] in my soul
[A] Woah!
Someday girl, I don't know when
[F#m] We're gonna get to that [C#m] place we really [E] wanna go
And we'll walk in the sun
[A] But too many sluts like [B] us
Maybe we were [E] born to run
[C#m] [A] Slutty sluts like us
Maybe we were [E] born to run
[C#m] [A] Slutty sluts like [B] us
Maybe we were [E] born to run
[A] Woah
[B] [E]
Ooh
I [A] love [B] you
[E]
Woah
[A] Woah
[E]
Woah
[A] Woah
[E] Ooh
