[Start]

[Intro]
F Fmaj7 F Bb Gm7 F Am Am7
                 
C Bb F
   


[Verse]
                    Bb        F     C7    F
A screen door slams   Mary's dress sways 
C7        F                 C               
  Like a vision she dances across the porch
       Bb         
As the radio plays
                            C     
Roy Orbison singing for the lonely
           F                 Bb  
Hey that's me and I want you only
              F         
Don't turn me home again
  C                                 
I just can't face myself alone again
      F                      
Don't run back inside darling
Bb                     F    C7  F
You know just what I'm here for 
C7           F                         
  So you're scared and you're thinking
C                        Bb           
That maybe we ain't that young anymore
                            C                 
Show a little faith there's magic in the night
Bb          F                     Bb     
You ain't a beauty but hey you're alright
F                       C      
 Oh and that's alright with me
F                                   Dm             
You can hide 'neath your covers and study your pain
F                             Bb                 F   
Make crosses from your lovers throw roses in the rain
                  Am             
Waste your summer praying in vain
      Bb                        Csus4  
For a savior to rise from these streets
         F                  Dm        
Well now I'm no hero that's understood
        F                          
All the redemption I can offer girl
Bb                        
Is beneath this dirty hood
F                        Am          
With a chance to make it good somehow
Bb                      C7 
Hey what else can we do now


[Chorus]
       F                   
Except roll down the window
Bb               F                  
And let the wind blow back your hair
         F                   
Well the night's busting open
Am                        Bb         
These two lanes will take us anywhere
                                  C7  
We got one last chance to make it real
   F                       Bb         
To trade in these wings on some wheels
F             C                                  
Climb in back heaven's waiting down on the tracks


[Verse]
F           Dm          
 Ohoh come take my hand
F                        Bb                   F   
We're riding out tonight to case the promised land
Am               
Ohoh Thunder Road
Bb              C              
Oh Thunder Road oh Thunder Road


[Chorus]
F                        Dm               
 Lying out there like a killer in the sun
F                       Bb             F     
Hey I know it's late we can make it if we run
Am               
Ohoh Thunder Road
Bb             C   
Sit tight take hold
F           
Thunder Road
       Bb             
Well I got this guitar
      C       C7             F   
And I learned how to make it talk


[Verse]
       Dm            
And my car's out back
                             Bb   C   
If you're ready to take that long walk
          Bb                      C   
From your front porch to my front seat
    Am                       Dm        
The door's open but the ride ain't free
Bb                Dm                    Gm      Bb    
And I know you're lonely for words that I ain't spoken
C                                                  
Tonight we'll be free all the promises'll be broken


[Chorus]
F                            
There were ghosts in the eyes
   Bb               F        
Of all the boys you sent away
                F               
They haunt this dusty beach road
       Am                 Bb                   
On the skeleton frames of burned out Chevrolets
                                      C     
They scream your name at night in the street
                F                    Bb        
Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet
       Am                         
And in the lonely cool before dawn
         Bb                      
You hear their engines roaring on
                    C7   
When you get to the porch
        C           Bb  
They're gone on the wind
        Gm      
So Mary climb in
       Bb                 
It's a town full of losers
C              
I'm pulling out
