Theres a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye
A
And a blade shining oh so bright
E B
Theres evil in the air and theres thunder in the sky
C#m A
And a killers on the bloodshot streets
E B
Oh and down in the tunnel where the deadly are rising
A
Oh I swear I saw a young boy, Down in the gutter
A B A B (piano climb)
He was starting to foam in the heat
A B
Oh Baby youre the only thing in this whole world
E A
Thats pure and good and right
A B
And wherever you are and wherever you go
A E
Theres always gonna be some light
A B
But I gotta get out, I gotta break it out now
C#m A (piano climb)
Before the final crack of dawn
E B
So we gotta make the most of our one night together

E A
Im gonna hit the highway like a battering ram
E
On a silver black phantom bike
E G#
When the metal is hot and the engine is hungry
A
And were all about to see the light
E B
Nothing ever grows in this rotting old hole
C#m A
Everything is stunted and lost
E B
And nothing really rocks, And nothing really rocks
A E
And nothings ever worth the cost

Faster than any other boy has ever gone

And my skin is raw but my soul is ripe
No ones gonna stop me now

And I never see the sudden curve until its way too late

Well I never see the sudden curve till its way too late
(Crash)

D E F#m
Then Im dying on the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun
D E F#m
Torn and twisted and the foot of a burning bike
G A Bm
And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell

And the last thing I see is my heart still beating
F# B
Breaking out of my body , And flying away

Like a bat out of hell

Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike

And the last thing I see is my heart still beating
Still beating, Still beating
F# B
Breaking out of my body and flying away
