[F] [Am]
[E] [G]
The screen door [Bb] slams, [F] Mary's dress swings
[C] Like a vision she dances [C] across the porch [Bb] as the radio plays
Hey, Roy Orbison singing for the lonely
[G] [F] That's me, I want you [Bb] only
Don't turn me on again
[F] I just can't face [C] myself alone anymore
Well, [F] I'm sure I'm right inside, [Bb] darling, you know just what [F] I'm here for
[C] So [F] you're scared and you're thinking
[C] Maybe we ain't [Bb] there
Well,
[C] [G]
[Bb]
[G] [C] that's all right, really
[F] I want you to cover your [Dm] eyes and study your pain
[D] [F] Watch some of your lovers [Bb] throw a rose in [C] the rain
[F]
Waste your [Am] summer's brain and dream
[Bb] For a scene that [C] arrives from these streets
[F] Well, I'm no hero, [Dm] that's understood
[F] But with redemption I can offer [Bb] girls beneath this [C] dirty hood
[F] The chance to [Am] make it good somehow
[Bb] Hey, what else can we [C] do now?
[F] Except walk out the [Bb] window, let the wind [F] blow back in
Well, nights busted on my [Am] knees, two legs in danger [Bb]
anywhere
We all want that chance to make [C] it real
[F] The train in these wings [Bb] on soft wheels
[F] Climbing back, [D] pillows laid down [C] on the chest
[F] Oh, come [Dm] take my [A] hand
Let [F] me walk across the night [Bb] to a place I [F] promised I'd go
Oh, [Am] Thunder Road, [Bb] oh, Thunder Road, [C] oh, Thunder Road
[F] Why are you out there with a [Dm] cure in the sun?
[C] [F] I know it's late, but [Bb] we can make it if we [F] run
Oh, Thunder Road, since [Bb] I
[C] take your [F] Thunder Road
I got this guitar and [C] I learned how to make it [F] talk
My [Dm] car's out back if you're ready to take [Bb] that long walk
[C] From [Bb] your trunk porch to your mouth I [C] see
Your door [Am] is open but the ride ain't [Dm] free
[Bb] Climb on your own with the words that I [F] ain't shaking
[C] Tonight, girl, we'll be free
[C] All the promises we'll be proving
To [F] the [G] eyes of all the boys [F] you sent
They hunt this dust in each [Am] world
To sell it to flames of [G] burned-out shepherds
[Bb]
They sweep your hair at [C] night on the street
People eyes are wishing [F] down, lies in the rack
[Bb] Help me, [Am] or the Lord will be killed before I die
You hear [Bb] the engines rolling off
You [F] get to the porch, [D] they're [Am] gone
[Bb] So [Gm] many times
That's the [Bb] town for the losers
[C] We're pulling out of here [F] tonight
