Verse
Bsus E Asus2 Bsus
In the day we sweat it out in the streets of a runaway American dream
E Asus2 Bsus
At night we ride through mansions of glory in suicide machines
Pre-Chorus
A C#m/G#
Sprung from cages out on highway nine,
F#m C#m/G# E
Chrome wheeled, fuel injected and steppin' out over the line
D/E A C#m/G#
Oh- Baby this town rips the bones from your back
F#m C#m/G#
It's a death trap, it's a suicide rap
E C#m/G#
We gotta get out while we're young
E/A Bsus E
`Cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run
Riff 1 + E, E, Asus2, Bsus Riff & E, E, Asus2, Bsus
Yes girl we were (Wendy)
Verse
Bsus E
Wendy let me in I wanna be your friend
Asus2 Bsus
I want to guard your dreams and visions
E
Just wrap your legs 'round these velvet rims
Asus2 Bsus
and strap your hands ‘cross my engines
Pre-Chorus
A C#m/G#
Together we could break this trap
F#m C#m/G# E D/E
We'll run till we drop, baby we'll never go back Oh
A C#m/G#
Will you walk with me out on the wire
F#m C#m/G#
Cause baby I'm just a scared and lonely rider
E C#m/G#
But I gotta know how it feels
E/A Bsus E
I want to know if love is wild, babe I want to know if love is real
Riff 1 + E, E, Asus2, Bsus
Oh can you show me
