Thunder Road (Cover) - Bruce Springsteen chords
Start Jamming...
The screen door slams,
[D] Mary's dress [A] waves
Blacker vision, she [F#m] dances across the porch [D] as the radio plays
Roy Orbison singing [E] for the lonely
[A] Hey, that's me and I want [D] you only
Don't turn me home again, [A] I just can't face myself [E] alone again
Don't [A] run back inside, [D] darling, you know just what I'm [A] here for
So you're scared and you're [F#m] thinking that maybe we ain't that [D] young anymore
Show a little faith, there's [A] magic [E] in the night
[A] You ain't that beauty, but hey, you're alright
Oh, and that's alright [E] with me
You can [A] hide beneath your covers and study your pain
[A] Make crosses from your lovers, [D] throw roses in the rain
Waste your summer [F#m] praying in pain [D] for a savior to rise from [E] these streets
Well, [A] now I'm no hero, [F#m] that's understood
All the [A] redemption I could offer, girl, [D] is beneath this dirty hood
With a chance to [F#m] make it good somehow, [D] hey, what else can [B] we do now?
Except [A] roll down the window [D] and let the wind [A] blow back your hair
Well, the night's busting up and these two lanes will take [D] us anywhere
We got one last chance [B] to make it real
So train in these wings on some wheels
[D] Climbing back, [Bm]
heaven's waiting down on [E] the tracks
[A] Oh, come [B] take my hand
[A] We're riding out tonight [D] to chase the promised [A] land
Oh, [F#m] Thunder Road, [D] oh, Thunder [E] Road, oh, Thunder Road
[A] Flying out there like [F#m] a killer in the sun
Hand out to life, we [D] can make it if we run
[A] Oh, [F#m]
Thunder Road, [D] sit tight
[E] Take hold, Thunder [A] Road
[D] This [A] guitar [B] and I learned how to [A] make it talk
My [F#m] car's out back if you're ready to take [D] that long [E] walk
From your front porch to my front seat
The [F#m] door's open but the ride, it ain't free
[D] And I know you're lonely for [Bm] words that I ain't [E] spoken
Tonight we'll be free, all the promises will be broken
[A] There were ghosts in the [D] airs of all the boys [A] you sent away
They haunt this dusty beach road [F#m] and the skeleton frames
[D] Burnt out Chevrolets, they scream your name at night in [B] the street
[A] Your graduation gown [F#m] lies in rags at their feet
[D] In the lonely gloom of far dawn
[A] You hear their engines roaring [F#m] on
[D] When you get to the porch, [E] they're gone
On the wind, so merry climate
It's a town full of losers, [B] pulling out of here to [A] win
[D]
[A] [F#m] [B]
[E] [A]
