"This song is about looking for connection... it's kept me good company"

>>>there's magic in keeping d-string open<<<


----------------------------------------------------------------------
  In the day we  sweat it out  on the streets  of a runaway
  G                                                 C
       American dream
                D
  At night  we ride  through  mansions of  glory  in suicide machines
     G                                               C       D7
  Sprung from cages on highway 9
  C                    G
  Chrome wheels, fuel injected and steppin' out over the line
         a-minor                   D                     C
  Baby, this town rips the bones from your back
  C                        G
  It's a death trap, it's a suicide rap
         a-minor            D
  I wanna get out while I'm still young
          C                       a-minor
  'Cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run
         C               D                    G

  Well, Wendy, let  me in, I  wanna be your  friend, I wanna
  G
      guard your dreams and visions
      C                     D
  Just wrap your legs  'round these velvet  rims, strap your
       G
      hands across my engines
      C               D
  And together we could break this trap
        C               G
  We'll run til we drop, and baby we'll never go back
        a-minor              D                   C
  Walk with me out on the wire
  C                G
  Girl, I'm just a scared and lonely rider
  a-minor                     D
  And I gotta know how it feels
        C                 a-minor
  I wanna know if love is wild, I wanna know if love is real
          C                       D                     G

  Beyond the  Palace  hemi-powered  drones  scream  down the
  D                                         F
       boulevard

  The girls comb their hair in the rear view mirrors and the
            C
      boys try to look so hard
      a-minor             G
  The amusement park rises bold and stark, kids are huddled on
       D                                            F
      the beach in the mist

  Well, I wanna die with you Wendy on the streets tonight in
                C
      an everlasting kiss
         a-minor     D

  Well, the highway's  jammed with  broken heroes  on a last
            G                                           C
      chance power drive
                   D
  Everybody's out on the run tonight, but there ain't no place
       G                                              C
       left to hide
               D
  Together we could live with the sadness
    C               G
  I'll love you with all the maddness in my soul
       a-minor               D              C
  Someday, baby, I don't know when
                   G
  We're gonna get to that place that we really wanna go
              a-minor                   D            C
  And we'll walk in the sun
  C                     a-minor
  Til then, tramps like us, baby we were born to run
            C               D                    G

       <chord sequence>: C   D   G ...
