 Intro:   E  A  B7  x2


     E                    A         B7
 In the day we sweat it out on the streets of a runaway American dream
   E                      A      B7
 At night we ride through the mansions of glory in suicide machines
  A           Abm
 Sprung from cages out on highway 9
     F#m            Abm          E
 Chrome wheeled, fuel injected,and steppin' out over the line
 A            Abm
 Baby this town rips the bones from your back
     F#m        Abm
 It's a death trap, it's a suicide rap
        E        C#m
 We gotta get out while we're young
     A       B7          E  A  B7  E  A  B7
 'Cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run

    E
 Wendy let me in I wanna be your friend
       A          B7
 I want to guard your dreams and visions
    E
 Just wrap your legs 'round these velvet rims
  A            B7
 and strap your hands 'cross my engines
  A           Abm
 Together Wendy we could break this trap
    F#m         Abm         E
 We'll run till we drop and baby we'll never go back
      A            Abm
 Will you walk with me out on the wire
    F#m            Abm
 'Cause baby I'm just a scared and lonely rider
    E         C#m
 But I gotta know how it feels
      A
 I want to know if love is wild
     B7           E  A  B7  E  A  B7
 Babe I want to know if love is real

  D                   G
 Beyond the Palace hemi-powered drones scream down the boulevard
    A
 Girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors
     C
 And the boys try to look so hard
    D
 The amusement park rises bold and stark
      G
 Kids are huddled on the beach in a mist
     A
 I wanna die with you Wendy on the street tonight
    C
 In an everlasting kiss

   E                    A         B7
 The highway's jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive
 E
 Everybody's out on the run tonight
       A         B7
 but there's no place left to hide
  A          Abm
 Together Wendy we can live with the sadness
   F#m          Abm      E
 I'll love you with all the madness in my soul
 A       Abm
 Someday girl I don't know when
       F#m
 we're gonna get to that place
     Abm      E
 Where we really want to go
            C#m
 and we'll walk in the sun
         A
 But till then tramps like us
 B7          E   A
 baby we were born to run
 B7          E   A
 baby we were born to run
 B7    E
 Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh
