INTRO: G D C (2x)
VERSE 1:
G C D
In the day we sweat it out on the streets of a runaway American dream
G C D
At night we ride through mansions of glory in suicide machines
C G
Sprung from cages on Highway 9
C D C
chrome wheeled, fuel injected and, steppin' out over the line
G
Baby this town rips the bones from your back,
Am D
it's a death trap, it's a suicide rap.
C Am (A2 Am A2)
We gotta get out while I'm still young
C D G
'Cause tramps like us baby we were born to run.
VERSE 2:
G
Hey Wendy, let me in, I wanna be your friend,
C D
I wanna guard your dreams and visions.
G
Just wrap your legs 'round these velvet rims,
C D
Strap your hands across my engines.
C G
And Together we could break this trap,
C D C
We'll run till we drop and, baby we'll never go back.
G
Walk with me out on the wire?
Am D
Girl, I'm just a scared and a lonely rider,
C Am (A2 Am A2)
But I gotta know how it feels,
C
I want to know if love is wild, baby,
D G
I want to know if love is real.
BRIDGE:
D F
Beyond the palace hemi-powered drones scream down the boulevard
C
The girls comb their hair in rear-view mirrors
Am D
and the boys try to look so hard
D
The amusement park rises bold and stark
F
Kids are huddled on the beach in a mist
C
I wanna die with you Wendy on the streets tonight
Am D
In a everlasting kiss
VERSE 3:
G
Well, The highways jammed with broken heroes
C D
On a last chance power drive
G
Everybody's out on the run tonight
C D
But there's no place left to hide
C G
Together, Wendy, we can live with the sadness
C D C
I'll love you with all the madness in my soul
G Am
Someday girl, I don't know when, we're gonna get to that place
D
Where we really wanna go
C Am (A2 Am A2)
And we'll walk in the sun
C
Till then tramps like us
D G
Baby we were Born To Run.
