Verse 1
G
One soft infested summer,
Em
me and Terry became friends
G
Trying in vain to breathe the fire we was
Em
born in
G
Catching rides to the outskirts,
Em
tying faith between our teeth
D
Sleeping in that old abandoned beach house,
C
getting wasted in the heat
Chorus 1
D
G
C
And hiding on the backstreets
G
C
Hiding on the backstreets

With a love so hard and filled with

defeat

Running for our lives at night on them

backstreets
Verse 2
G
Slow dancing in the dark
Em
on the beach at Stockton's Wing
G
Where desperate lovers park,
Em
we sat with the last of the Duke Street Kings
D
Huddled in our cars,
C
waiting for the bells that ring
Am7
In the deep heart of the night
C
D
they set us loose of everything
Chorus 2
G

To go running on the backstreets

Bridge 1

F#m
Endless juke joints and Valentino drag
A
Where dancers scraped the tears up off the
F#m
street, dressed down in rags
A
F#m
Running into the darkness, some hurt bad,
some really dying
Esus4
E
At night sometimes it seemed you could hear
D
the whole damn city crying
Blame it on the lies that killed us,
E
blame it on the truth that ran us down
A
You can blame it all on me, Terry,
D
it don't matter to me now
When the breakdown hit at midnight,
E
there was nothing to say
A
But I hated him,
E
F#m
and I hated you when you went away

Verse 3
G
Laying here in the dark,
Em
you're like an angel on my chest
G
Just another tramp of hearts
Em
crying tears of faithlessness
D
Remember Remember all the movies,
C
Terry, we'd go see
Am7
Trying to learn to walk like the heroes
C
D
we thought we had to be
Em
And after all this time,
Bm
to find we're just like all the rest
C
D
Stranded in the park and forced to confess
