Intro: FF  Bb majorBb  FF  C majorC    FF  A minorAm  Bb majorBb  Csus-C
    FF       Bb majorBb     FF            FF
The screen door slams Mary's dress waves    Like a vision she dances
  C majorC            Bb majorBb                     C majorC
across the porch  As the radio plays  Roy Orbison singing for the lonely
      FF         Bb majorBb                 FF
Hey that's me and I want you only  Don't turn me home again I just can't face
  C majorC
myself alone again
    FF            Bb majorBb            FF
Don't run back inside  darling you know just what I'm here for
                       C majorC          Bb majorBb
So you're scared and you're thinking  That maybe we ain't that young anymore
                      C majorC
Show a little faith, there's magic in the night
       FF            Bb majorBb       FF         C majorC
You ain't a beauty, but hey you're alright  Oh and that's alright with me
     FF              DmDm          FF
You can hide neath your covers And study your pain Make crosses from your lovers
   Bb majorBb        FF          A minorAm
Throw roses in the rain  Waste your summer praying in rain
    Bb majorBb              C7C7       FF
For a saviour to rise from these streets  Well now I'm no hero
    DmDm           FF                Bb majorBb
That's understood All the redemption I can offer, girl Is beneath this dirty hood
FF             A minorAm         Bb majorBb         C7C7
 With a chance to make it good somehow Hey what else can we do now
    FF           Bb majorBb           FF
Except roll down the window  And let the wind blow back your hair
                    C majorC          Bb majorBb
Well the night's busting open  These two lanes will take us anywhere
                  C majorC     FF              Bb majorBb
We got one last chance to make it real  To trade in these wings on some wheels
         FF         C majorC
Climb in back  Heaven's waiting on down the tracks
FF      DmDm        FF          Bb majorBb
Oh oh come take my hand   Riding out tonight to case the promised land
FF A minorAm        Bb majorBb       C7C7
Oh oh Thunder Road, oh Thunder Road oh Thunder Road
 FF           DmDm            FF
Lying out there like a killer in the sun   Hey I know it's late
    Bb majorBb         FF     A minorAm     Bb majorBb     C7C7       FF
we can make it if we run  Oh Thunder Road, sit tight take hold  Thunder Road
    Bb majorBb            C majorC             FF
Well I got this guitar  And I learned how to make it talk
    DmDm                       Bb majorBb  C majorC
And my car's out back  If you're ready to take that long walk
      Bb majorBb           C majorC        A minorAm             DmDm
From your front porch to my front seat The door's open but the ride it ain't free
    Bb majorBb       Bb/A        Gm7Gm7   Bb/FBb/F
And I know you're lonely  For words that I ain't spoken
    C majorC
But tonight we'll be free  All the promises'll be broken
       FF            Bb majorBb       FF
There were ghosts in the eyes  Of all the boys you sent away
                      C majorC         Bb majorBb
They haunt this dusty beach road In the skeleton frames of burned out Chevrolets
                      C majorC         FF
They scream your name at night in the street Your graduation gown lies in rags at
  Bb majorBb            A minorAm
their feet    And in the lonely cool before dawn
        Bb majorBb                G minorGm            C majorC
You hear their engines roaring on  But when you get to the porch they're gone
    Bb majorBb         G minorGm      Bb majorBb
On the wind, so Mary climb in  It's a town full of losers
     C majorC           FF FF
And I'm pulling out of here to win.
FF  C majorC  FF  Bb majorBb   FF  C majorC  Bb majorBb  C majorC
