Racing In The Street(Chords)

	        
C 
I got a sixty-nine Chevy with a 396 
       F 
Fuelie heads and a Hurst on the floor 
Dm 
She's waiting tonight down in the parking lot 
            F 
Outside the Seven-Eleven store 
          C 
Me and my partner Sonny built her straight out of scratch 
       F 
And he rides with me from town to town 
        Dm 
We only run for the money got no strings attached 
            F 
We shut `em up and then we shut `em down 
  C 
Tonight tonight the strip's just right 
          F 
I'm gonna blow `em off in my first heat 
Dm 
Summer's here and the time is right 
      F                   C 
For racin' in the street 
C 
We take all the action we can meet 
       F 
And we cover all the northeast states 
         Dm 
When the strip shuts down we run `em in the street 
         F 
>From the fire roads to the interstate 
     C 
Now Some guys they just give up living 
                F 
And start dying little by little piece by piece 
          Dm 
Some guys come home from work and wash up 
        F 
And  go racin' in the street 
C 
Tonight tonight the strip's just right 
          F 
I'm gonna blow `em all out of their seats 
Dm 
Calling out around the world 
            F 
We're going racin' in the street 

C 
He met her on the strip three years ago 
     F 
In a Camaro with this dude from L.A. 
   Dm                                   F 
He blew that Camaro off his back and he drove that little girl away 
                C 
But now there's wrinkles around his baby's eyes 
        F 
And she cries herself to sleep at night 
     Dm 
When he comes home the house is dark 
         F 
She says Baby  make it all right 
    C 
She sits on the porch of her daddy's house 
    F 
But all her pretty dreams are torn 
    Dm 
She stares out alone into the night 
                 F 
With the eyes of one who hates for just being born 
            C 
For all the shut-down strangers and hot rod angels 
F 
Rumbling through this promised land 
Dm 
Tonight my baby and me we're gonna ride to the sea 
    F 
And wash these sins off our hands 
 C 
Tonight tonight the highway's bright 
           F 
Out of our way mister you best keep 
      Dm 
Cause summer's here and the time is right 
    F                      C   Bb    C    Bb  F   C 
For racin' in the street
