[Verse]
    F                            Bb               
The sirens are screaming and the fires are howling
    F                         
Way down in the valley tonight
                                           Am     
There's a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye
            Bb                  
And a blade shining oh so bright
             F                              C         
There's evil in the air and there's thunder in the sky
               Dm               Bb     
And a killer's on the bloodshot streets
               F                           C         
Oh and down in the tunnel where the deadly are rising
             Bb                                
Oh I swear I saw a young boy down in the gutter
       Bb                          
He was starting to foam in the heat
C Bb Csus4 C

   Bb                            C               
Oh baby you're the only thing in this whole world
       F                 Bb   
That's pure and good and right
                         C              
And wherever you are and wherever you go
Bb                           F    
There's always gonna be some light
      Bb                    C               
But I gotta get out I gotta break it out now
Dm                        Bb  
Before the final crack of dawn
      F                          C                 
So we gotta make the most of our one night together
          Bb                             C     Csus4 C7
When it's over you know we'll both be so alone ■     ■ 


[Chorus]
       F                       Bb                    F    
Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes
                                 Am                      Bb   Gm7      
Oh when the night is over like a bat out of hell I'll be gone gone gone
       F                       C                     Bb   
Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes
             F           C                    
But when the day is done and the sun goes down
C                                  
And the moonlight's shinin' through
            F                 Dm       F     
Then like a sinner before the gates of Heaven
          Bbmaj7      Gm7        
I'll come crawlin' on back to you
Bb C Bb C

F                                Bb           
I'm gonna hit the highway like a battering ram
     F                        
On a silver black Phantom bike
            F                                    
Oh when the metal is hot and the engine is hungry
    Bb                              
And we're all about to see the light
F                          C               
Nothing ever grows in this rotting old hole
Dm                            Bb  
And everything is stunted and lost
F                            C                   
And nothing really rocks and nothing really rolls
Bb                           F   
And nothing's ever worth the cost


[Verse]
      Bb            C           F            
And I know that I'm damned if I never get out
Bb           C           F 
And baby I'm damned if I do
Bb             C                Dm              
But with every other beat I got left in my heart
             Bb     C              F  
You know I'd rather be damned with you
                                     C              
Well if I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Bb                  C          F  
Dancing through the night with you
                              C                     
Well if I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
F                   Bb                    
Gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
F                   C                     
Gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Bb                                                 
Dancing through the night dancing through the night

[Verse]
Bb                                     
Oh I can see myself tearing up the road
                      F                
Faster than any other boy has ever gone
Bb                                       
Oh and my skin is raw but my soul is ripe
                                              F        
And no one's gonna stop me now I'm gonna make my escape
            Bb   F              
But I can't stop thinking of you


[Chorus]
Ab                                             F   C    C7 C
And I never see the sudden curve 'til it's way too late ■  ■
Bb    Ab            Eb                     F           
And I never see the sudden curve 'til it's way too late


[Verse]
Eb                    F                      Gm         
Then I'm dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun
Eb                      F         Gm          
Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike
      Ab                       Bb                C   
And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell
Eb                 F           Gm          Eb      F
And the last thing I see is my heart still beating ■
Eb       Gm             C          Cm7  C
Breaking out of my body and flying away ■
C7            Fsus4  F   
■  Like a bat out of hell


[Chorus]
                      Ab              Bb             C  
Then I'm dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun
         Ab                      Bb   C           
All torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike
Eb                   F                           Gm  
And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell
Ab                   Bb     C        Db           
And the last thing I see is my heart still beating
      Db     
Still beating
            F                  C7         
Oh breakin' out of my body and flyin' away
               F       Bb
Like a bat out of hell ■ 
                  F  Bb  
Oh like a bat out of hell
                  F  C7     
Oh like a bat out of ■  hell
        F C7 C Bb                
Oh like a ■  ■ ■  bat out of hell
F         C Bb                
Oh like a ■ ■  bat out of hell
        F                
Oh like a bat out of hell
