Intro: G
G Dsus4
You were standing with your girlfriends in the streets
Cadd9 Em7 Cadd9 Em7-Cadd9-Em7-A7
Falling back on forever, I wonder what you came to be
G Dsus4
I was new in town, the boy with the eager eyes
Cadd9 Em7 Cadd9 Em7-Cadd9-Em7-A7
I never was a quitter, oblivious to schoolgirls' lies
Cadd9 Em7
When I look back on those neon nights
The leather seats, the passage rite
I feel the heat, I see the light
G
Miss Atomic Bomb
Dsus4
Making out, we've got the radio on
Cadd9 Em7
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
Cadd9 Em7-A7
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
G
Racing shadows in the moonlight
Dsus4
Through the desert on a hot night
Cadd9 Em7
And for a second there we'd won
Cadd9 Em7-A7
Yeah, we were innocent and young
G Dsus4 Cadd9 Em7 Cadd9 Em7 A7 (2x)
G Dsus4
Cast out of the night, well you've got a foolish heart
Cadd9 Em7 A7 Em7 A7
So you took your place but the fall from grace was the hardest part
G Dsus4
It feels just like a dagger buried deep in your back
You run for cover but you can't escape the second attack
Cadd9 Em7
Your soul was innocent, she kissed him and she painted it black
Cadd9 Em7-A7
You should have seen your little face, burnin' for love
Em7-A7
Holdin on' for your life
Cadd9 Em7
All that I wanted was a little touch,
A little tenderness and truth, I didn't ask for much, no
Cadd9
Talk about being at the wrong place at the wrong time
G
Miss Atomic Bomb
Dsus4
Making out, we've got the radio on
Cadd9 Em7
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
Cadd9 Em7-A7
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
G
Racing shadows in the moonlight
Dsus4
We're taking chances on a hot night
Cadd9 Em7
And for a second there we'd won
Cadd9 Em7-A7
Yeah we were innocent and young
G
The dust cloud has settled, and my eyes are clear
But sometimes in dreams of impact I still hear
G Dsus4
Miss Atomic Bomb, I'm standing here
Cadd9
Sweat on my skin
Em7 Cadd9
And this love that I've cradled
Em7-A7 G
Is wearing thin (Miss Atomic Bomb)
Dsus4 Cadd9
But I'm standing here and you're too late
Em7 Cadd9 Em7-A7
Your shock-wave whisper has sealed your fate
G Dsus4
It feels just like a dagger buried deep in your back (It's so cruel ?)
You run for cover but you can't escape the second attack (and you turn your back, you're so)
Cadd9 Em7
Your soul was innocent, she kissed him and she painted it black (on a losing game)
Cadd9 Em7-A7
You should have seen your little face, burning for love,
G
(Miss Atomic Bomb) Holdin' on for your life
Dsus4
But you can't survive (All that I wanted was a little touch)
G Dsus4
When you want it all (A little tenderness and truth, I didn't ask for much)
Cadd9 Em7
There's another side (Talk about being at the wrong place at the wrong time)
