Born To Run (acoustic)

	  		


Intro: C    F  G  C    F  G 

verse 1: 
       C                                 
In the day we sweat it out on the streets 
     F                G 
Of a runaway American dream 
   C 
At night we ride through mansions of glory 
  F          G 
In suicide machines 


verse 2: 
F                    Am         
Sprung from cages on Highway 9 
       Dm7                        Am                    C     
Chrome wheeled, fuel injected and stepping out over the line  
Bb   F                       Am                    
Ohh, baby this town rips the bones from your back  
       Dm7                Am 
It's a death trap, it's a suicide rap  
         C                   Am 
We gotta get out while we're young     
       F               G                 C         F  G 
'Cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run,    oh 


verse 3: 
      C 
Wendy let me in, I wanna be your friend  
        F                     G 
I wanna guard your dreams and visions 
     C 
Just wrap your legs round these velvet rims  
    F                          G 
And strap your hands 'cross my engines  


verse 4: 
  F               Am         
Together we could break this trap 
      Dm7               Am                   C     
We'll run till we drop, baby, we'll never go back 
Bb            F                       Am                    
Ohh, will you walk with me out on the wild 
       Dm7                           Am 
'Cause baby, I'm just a scared and a lonely rider  
      C                    Am 
But I gotta know how it feels 
        F                             G                     C 
I wanna know if love is wild, babe, I wanna know if love is real 
   F                  G 
Oh oh, can you show me 


INTERLUDE: C     F  G  Am   G C   Gm 


Bridge: 
  Bb                                   
Beyond the Palace, hemi powered drones 
Eb 
Scream down the boulevard 
      F 
Girls comb there hair in rear view mirrors  
        Ab 
And the boys try to look so hard 
     Bb                                   
The amusement park rises bold and stark 
         Eb 
Kids are huddled on the beach in a mist  
        F                                           Ab 
I wanna die with you, Wendy, on the street tonight 
                        Bb 
In an everlasting kiss 


VERSE 5: 
    C 
The highway's jammed with broken heroes 
     F                      G 
On a last chance power drive 
         C 
And everybody's out on the run tonight 
               F                G 
'Cause there's no place left to hide 


VERSE 6: 
  F                     Am         
Together, Wendy, we can live with the sadness 
  Dm7                   Am            C     
I love you with all the madness in my soul 
Bb   F               Am                    
Ohh, someday girl, I don't know when 
            Dm7                        Am           C 
We're gonna get to that place where we really wanna go 
                     Am 
And we'll walk in the sun 
           F               G                 C      Am7 
'Til then, tramps like us, baby we were born to run 
          F               G                 C          Am7 
Ah honey, tramps like us, baby we were born to run, ah come on now, Wendy 
F               G                 C 
Tramps like us, baby we were born to run
