Intro: Am F C verse 1: Am Don't tell mama, F Don't tell your daddy, C Baby, let's just go. Am F The only escaping, the only salvation C Is a long dark road Am You're bitin' your lip girl, F You're tight as a fist girl, C We'll be all right Am Once we're over the hot sand, F C Out of the badlands, into the night.
Am F C Verse 2: Am Don't trust the teachers, F Don't trust the preachers C That the world is round Am We'll find out for ourselves, F C Once we break past the shell on the edge of this town Am I got some twenties and tens F C In a Maxwell House can with the lid on tight, Am To get us over the hot sand, F C Out of the badlands, into the night. Chorus: G Oh, F C There's a billion little stars, G Oh, F C Let's pick out which one is ours G Oh, F C Girl, I need you by my side, Am To get over the hot sand, F C Out of the badlands, into the night. Verse 3: Am Baby you'd better F Get jeans and a sweater C If the air gets cold Am 'Cause we been dreaming bout breaking out, F C Running away, since seven years old F And it won't be as hard Am Once the fence in our yard C Disappears out of sight Am When we're over the hot sand, F C Out of the badlands, into the night. chorus: G Oh, F C There's a billion little stars, G Oh, F C Let's pick out which one is ours G Oh, F C Girl, I need you by my side, Am To get over the hot sand, F C Out of the badlands, into the night. Am To get over the hot sand, F C
