Selection chords: Henry Walker

        F7                                        C#             D#
In the day we sweat it out on the streets of a runaway American dream
   F7                                       C#          D#
At night we ride through mansions of glory in suicide machines
  C#                   F7
Sprung from cages on Highway 9
          C#                         D#                    C#
chrome wheeled, fuel injected and, steppinʼ out over the line
                           G#
Baby this town rips the bones from your back,
         A#m                D#
itʼs a death trap, itʼs a suicide rap.
            C#                 A#m
We gotta get out while Iʼm still young
         C#             D#                   F7
ʼCause tramps like us baby we were born to run.

   F7
Hey Wendy, let me in, I wanna be your friend,
        C#                     D#
I wanna guard your dreams and visions.
     F7
Just wrap your legs ʼround these velvet rims,
      C#                      D#
Strap your hands across my engines.
      C#               G#
And Together we could break this trap,
       C#                    D#                   C#
Weʼll run till we drop and, baby weʼll never go back.
             G#
Walk with me out on the wire?
         A#m                   D#
Girl, Iʼm just a scared and a lonely rider,
      C#                 A#m
But I gotta know how it feels,
  C#
I want to know if love is wild, baby,
    D#                     F7
I want to know if love is real.

  D#m                                    F#
Beyond the palace hemi-powered drones scream down the boulevard
      C#
The girls comb their hair in rear-view mirrors
         A#m                D#
and the boys try to look so hard
  D#m
The amusement park rises bold and stark
          F#
Kids are huddled on the beach in a mist
         C#
I wanna die with you Wendy on the streets tonight
     A#m           D#
In a everlasting kiss

             G#
Well, The highways jammed with broken heroes
      C#                    D#
On a last chance power drive
     F7
Everybodyʼs out on the run tonight
            C#                D#
But thereʼs no place left to hide
   C#                    F7
Together, Wendy, we can live with the sadness
C#                          D#              C#
Iʼll love you with all the madness in my soul
         F7                                   A#m
Someday girl, I donʼt know when, weʼre gonna get to that place
          D#
Where we really wanna go
 C#                    A#m
And weʼll walk in the sun
               C#
Till then tramps like us
D#                  F7
Baby we were Born To Run.
