D G D Dsus2 D
Well, the screen door slams, Mary's dress waves
A G
Like a vision she dances across the porch as the radio plays
A
Roy Orbison is singing for the lonely
D G
Hey, that's me, I want you only
D A Asus4 A
Don't turn me home again, I just can't face myself alone again
D G
So don't you run back inside, darling 'cause you know
D Dsus2 D
just what I'm here for
A G
And you're scared and you're thinking that maybe we're not that young anymore
A
Well, show a little faith, 'cause there's magic in the night
D G
You ain't a beauty, hey, alright
D A Asus4 A
Oh, and that's alright with me
D Bm
Now you can hide underneath the covers and study your pain
D G
Make crosses from your lovers and throw roses in the rain
D A
You can waste your summers praying in vain
G A
For a savior to rise from these streets
D Bm
Oh, I'm no hero, and that's understood
D G
All the redemption I can offer, girl, is beneath this dirty hood
D A
We got a chance to make it good somehow
G A
Well, what else can we do now?

D G D Dsus2 D
Except roll down the window and let the wind blow back our hair
A G
This night's busted open, and these two lanes can take us anywhere
A
We got one last chance to make it real
D G
To trade in these wings on some wheels
D A Asus2 A
Climb in back, darling, now heaven is waiting down on the tracks
D Bm
So, oh-oh, come take my hand
D G
We're riding out tonight to case the promised land
D A G
Oh-oh-oh-oh, Thunder Road, oh, Thunder Road
A
Oh, Thunder Road
D Bm
Well it's lying out there like a killer in the sun
D G
And I know that it's late, but we can make it if we run
D A
Oh-oh-oh-oh, Thunder Road
G A D Dsus2 D
Sit tight, take hold, Thunder Road
G A D Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
Well, I got this guitar and I learned how to make it talk
G A
And my car's out back if you're ready to take that long, long walk
G A
From your front porch to my front seat
D G
The door's open but the ride ain't free
G* Em7
And I know you're lonely for things that I haven't spoken
A
But tonight we'll be free, all the promises will be broken
D G D Dsus2 D
There were ghosts in the eyes of all the boys that you sent away
A G
They haunt these dusty beach roads in the skeleton frames of burned out Chevrolets
A
And they scream your name at night in the street
D G
The graduation gown lies in rags at their feet
F#m
And in the lonely cold before dawn
G
You hear the engines roaring on
A
But when you get to the porch they're gone
G
On the wind
Em
So Mary climb in
G A D Dsus2 D
This is a town full of losers, I'm-a pulling out of here to win
