verse 1 
A                          D     Ddim7 
Small screen, July evening view 
            F#m            F#7 
Up and down Grand Avenue 
                   Bm        E 
Where the legends get made 
             A     D         E 
Out with the Boys' Brigade 
            A    D      Bm   A 
Part of the motorcade 
A                         D       Ddim7 
Flew home from Texas last night 
             F#m      F#7 
Slept on the flight 
                     Bm   E 
Work like a dog all day 
              A     D     E 
Born to chase cars away 
           A        D 
Die on the road someday 
  Bm     Ddim7                       A    F#m   D 
I try to remember what life was like long ago 
         E 
But it's gone, you know 


          E          A 
Climb the turnbuckle high 
                      D 
Take two falls out of three 
E                   A   Bm   A 
Blackout for local TV 



verse 2 
A                            D   Ddim7 
Stand in that cold empty hall 
                          F#m      F#7 
Wait for your name to get called 
                        Bm 
Burn like hillsides on fire 
             E       A        D       E 
In the squall of the ringside choir 
A         D      Em7 
High as a wire 
                                        D       Ddim7 
Nearly drive Danny's nose back into his brain 
        F#m             Faug    A   Bm   A 
All the cheap seats go insane 
A                                  D          Ddim7 
Keep my eyes open and try to think straight 
                             F#m   F#7 
No one drives on the 60 this late 
                           Bm     E 
Feel like the last person alive 
       A                 D       E   A   D 
Francisquito to Glenshaw Drive 
  Bm       Ddim7                  A        F#m   E   D 
I try to remember to write in the diary 
D       E 
That my son gave me 

 
          E          A 
Climb the turnbuckle high 
                      D 
Take two falls out of three 
E                   A 
Blackout for local TV
