Bruce Springsteen - Blinded By The Light: chords

E                           A
Madman drummers bummers and Indians in
                   B7              E
the summer with a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps as
the adolescent pumps his way into his hat
With a boulder on my shoulder,
feelin' kinda older, I tripped the merry-go-round
With this very unpleasing sneezing and wheezing,
the calliope crashed to the ground

Some all-hot half-shot was headin'
for the hot spot, snappin' his fingers,
clappin' his hands
And some fleshpot mascot was tied into
a lover's knot with a whatnot in her hand
And now young Scott with a slingshot finally
found a tender spot and throws his lover in the sand
And some bloodshot forget-me-not whispers,
"Daddy's within earshot, save the buckshot,
turn up the band"

Chorus:
              A      B      E
And she was blinded by the light
         A            B             E
Oh, cut loose like a deuce another runner
in the night
  A      B      E    C#m
Blinded by the light
  B
She got down but she never got tight,
            A         E
but she'll make it alright

Some brimstone baritone anti-cyclone
rolling stone preacher from the east
He says, "Dethrone the dictaphone, hit
it in it's funny bone, that's where they
expect it least"
And some new-mown chaperone was standin'
in the corner all alone, watchin' the young
girls dance
And some fresh-sown moonstone was messin'
with his frozen zone to remind him of the
feeling of romance

Chorus:
Yeah, he was blinded by the light
Oh, cut loose like a deuce, another
runner in the night
Blinded by the light
He got down but he never got tight,
but he's gonna make it tonight

Some silicone sister with her manager's
mister told me I got what it takes
She said, "I'll turn you on, sonny,
to something strong, if you play that song
with the funky break"
And go-cart Mozart was checkin' out
the weather chart to see if it was safe
to go outside
And little Early-Pearly came by in
her curly-wurly and asked me if I needed a ride

Oh, some hazard from Harvard was skunked on
beer, playin' backyard bombardier
Yes and Scotland Yard was trying hard,
they sent some dude with a calling card
He said, "Do what you like, but don't do it here"
Well I jumped up, turned around, spit in
the air, fell on the ground
Asked him which was the way back home
He said, Take a right at the light, keep goin'
straight until night, and then boys, you're all
on your own"

And now in Zanzibar, a shootin' star was ridin'
in a side car, hummin' a lunar tune
Yes, and the avatar said, "Blow the bar,
but first remove the cookie jar, we're gonna
teach those boys to laugh too soon"
And some kidnapped handicap was complainin'
that he caught the clap from some mousetrap
he bought last night
Well, I unsnapped his skull cap and between
his ears, I saw a gap and figured he'd be alright

Chorus:
He was just blinded by the light
Cut loose like a deuce, another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Mama always told me not to look into the
sights of the sun
Woah, but mama, that's where the fun is, oh yeah

I was blinded
Oh mama, oh mama
I was blinded
Oh mama, oh mama
I was blinded
I was blinded
I was blinded
I was blinded
I was blinded
I was blinded
I was blinded
I was blinded
