Verse 1:
BB
Slam a door screaming off into the night
D MajorD                 E MajorE
I couldn’t stand to listen to the oldies fight
BB
Rolled all the way to a bar downtown
D MajorD             E MajorE
Sneaked thru the back door no one around

BB
Into the darkness of a smoke filled room
D MajorD             E MajorE
Sweat smelled sweeter than Dracula’s tomb
BB
Started with a crash and a bolt of light
D MajorD            E MajorE
Couldn’t believe what I saw that night

Pounding like a hammer on a cold steel grate
D MajorD             E MajorE
Rhythm coming hot burnin thru my veins
BB
Guitar singer shooting sparks thru me
D MajorD             E MajorE
Drummer stood up and shout ONE TWO THREE

BB
Out of my body out of my mind
D MajorD             E MajorE
Crawling round looking for an exit sign
BB
No way out and there was no way back
D MajorD              E MajorE
When I felt that first full frontal attack

Hands were shaking   trapped inside that room
