I got a 69 Chevy with a 396, [Bb] Juliettes and a hearse down the floor.
She's [Gm] waiting the night down in the parking lot,
[F] outside the [Bb] 7-Eleven store.
And my partner Sonny, we built her straight out of scratch, and he [Bb] rides with me from town to town.
[Dm] We only [Gm] run for the money, had no strings attached.
We shut him [Bb] up and we shut him down.

[F] Now we take all the action we can be, [Bb] and we cover all of Northeast state.
When [Gm] the strip shuts down, we run them in the street, [F] from the [Bb] fire roads to the interstate.
[F] Now some guys, they just give up living, and [Bb] start dying little by little, piece by piece.

[F] I met her on the strip three years ago, in a [Bb] Camaro with this dude from LA.
Well, [F] [Gm] I blew that Camaro off my back,
[Dm] and I [Bb] drove that girl away.
Now there's [F] wrinkles around the baby's eyes, and she cries herself to sleep at night.
And when I come [Gm] home, the house is dark.
[G] She says, [Bb] baby, didn't make it all right.
[F] She just sits [F] on the porch of her daddy's house, but [Fm] all her pretty dreams been torn.
[C]
And she stares [G] off alone into the night, with the eyes of one of these, [F] for just being born.
Well, for all the shut down strangers, and hot rod angels, [Bb] rambling through this promised land.
Tonight, [Gm] baby, and me, we're going to ride to the sea, [Bb] and wash these sins off our hands.
