Bruce Springsteen - Born to Run: chords

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

Wendy let me in, I wanna be your friend
I want to guard your dreams and visions
Just wrap your legs 'round these velvet rims
And strap your hands across my engines
Together we could break this trap
We'll run till we drop, baby we'll never go back
Oh, will you walk with me out on the wire?
`Cause baby I'm just a scared and lonely rider
But I gotta know how it feels
I want to know if love is wild, babe
I want to know if love is real
Oh, can you show me?

  Dsus4     D      Dsus4         D      Gsus4
Beyond the Palace hemi-powered drones scream
          G   Gsus4 G
down the boulevard
      Asus4       A       Asus4    A
Girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors,
        Csus4        C       Csus4 C
and the boys try to look so hard
    Dsus4      D         Dsus4      D
The amusement park rises bold and stark,
          Gsus4          G          Gsus4 G
kids are huddled on the beach in a mist
        Asus4         A            Asus4
I wanna die with you Wendy on the streets
   A          Csus4 C     Csus4 C
tonight in an everlasting kiss

The highways jammed with broken heroes
On a last chance power drive
Everybody's out on the run tonight
But there's no place left to hide
Together, Wendy, we can live with the sadness
I'll love you with all the madness in my soul
Oh, someday girl, I don't know when
We're gonna get to that place
Where we really want to go,
and we'll walk in the sun
But till then, tramps like us
Baby, we were born to run

Oh honey, tramps like us
Baby, we were born to run
Come on Wendy, tramps like us
Baby, we were born to run
Whoa-oh-whoa
Hm-hm-hm
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Hm-hm-hm
Whoa-oh-whoa
Oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
