   Verse 1:
D                                              G                A
In the day we sweat it out in the streets of a runaway american dream
D                                             G         A
At night we ride through mansions of glory in suicide machines
G                        D
Sprung from cages out on highway 9,
Em                                F#m                   D    D7
Chrome wheeled, fuel injected and steppin' out over the line
G                       F#m
Baby this town rips the bones from your back
Em                 F#m
It's a death trap, it's a suicide rap
D                            Bm
We gotta get out while we're young
G                      A                    D
'cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run

   Verse 2:
D                                                G                     A
Wendy let me in I wanna be your friend,I want to guard your dreams and visions
D                                               G                          A
Just wrap your legs round these velvet rims,And strap your hands across my engines
G                 D
Together we could break this trap
Em                      F#m                 D    D7
We'll run till we drop, baby we'll never go back
G                     F#m
Will you walk with me out on the wire
Em                            F#m
'cause baby I'm just a scared and lonely rider
D                           Bm
But I gotta find out how it feels
          G                     A                              D
I want to know if love is wild, girl I want to know if love is real

   Bridge:
C          Cadd4  C    Cadd4          F
Beyond the palace hemi-powered drones scream down the boulevard
C   G                        G6  G
The girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors
C                           F
And the boys try to look so hard
C             Cadd4 C             Cadd4
The amusement park rises bold and stark
F
Kids are huddled on the beach in a mist
C       G                         G6      G
I wanna die with you wendy on the streets tonight
C                 F
In an everlasting kiss

D                                            G                 A
The highway's jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive
D                                              G                A
Everybody's out on the run tonight but there's no place left to hide
G                    D
Together wendy we'll live with the sadness
Em                         F#m           D   D7
I'll love you with all the madness in my soul
G              F#m                         Em
Someday girl I don't know when we're gonna get to that place
F#m                                  D           Bm
Where we really want to go and we'll walk in the sun
         G     A                    D
But till then  baby we were born to run
