Bruce Springsteen & Melissa Etheridge - Thunder Road Live Acoustic chords
Start Jamming...
The [F] screen door [Bb] slams and the [F] radio's glitching
Black revisionist dances across [C] the porch [Bb] as the radio plays
Royal Orbison singing for [C] the lonely
[F] It's me and I want you [Bb] only
Don't send me home again, [F] I just can't face [C] myself alone
Well [F] don't you run back inside, [Bb] darling, you know just [F] what I'm here for
So you're scared and thinking that maybe we ain't that [Bb] young anymore
Well show a little faith, there's magic in [C] the night
[F] Yeah, you're beautiful, hey, [Bb] you're alright
Well, [F] it's alright [C] with me
[F] Dig and hide, cover [Dm] things, study your pain
[F] Make crosses from your lovers, [Bb] throw roses in the [F] rain
Waste your summer, pray it in vain
[Bb] Save your eyes [D] from these streets
Well, [F] I'm no hero, [Dm] it's understood
All [F] the redemption I got too off a [Bb] girl is beneath this dirty [F] hood
A chance to make it real somehow, [Bb] tell me what else can we [D] do now
Except [F] roll down the [Bb] window and let the [F] wind blow back your hair
Lord, the nights busted open, these two lanes will [Bb] take us anywhere
We got one last chance [C] to make it real
[F]
Chaining these wings [Bb] on some wheels
Climbing back, [F] heaven's waiting [C] down on the tracks
[F]
Oh, [Dm] come take my hand
We're riding out [Bb] tonight to the case I [F] promised land
Oh, thunder, [Bb] oh thunder, [D] oh thunder
[F] It's light out [Dm] there and I can hear the sun
[F] I know this is the [Bb] land we came to make it [F] if we're on
Oh, thunder, oh, step [D] tight
Say hello, [F] thunder Hello
I'm [Bb]
just getting [C] tired, I learned how [F] to make it talk
[Am] And my car's out there if you're ready [Am] to take [Bb] that [D] long walk
From [Bb] your front porch to [D] my front seat
The [F] door's open but the [Bb] ride ain't free
I know you're lonely, words that I ain't spoke
[C] And I'm gonna be free
I promise it'll be long and [F] hell will have those tears
[Bb] From all the boys [F] you sent away
And hop this dusty beach road and the skeleton frames
And [Bb] burned out Chevrolet
They're screaming your name at night in the [C] street
Your graduation [F] gown lies in the rags at [Bb] their feet
[F] In the lonely coop before the dawn
You [Bb] hear the engines roaring on
When you get to the porch [D] they're gone [Bb] with the wind
St.
[F] Mary [Gm] climbing
The
[Bb] chambers [C] were pulled out of here [F] to win
[Fm]
[F] [Gb]
[Bb] [Ab]
