Intro 1
(D major) (B minor) (D major) (G major) (D major) (F sharp minor) (G major)
(D major) (A major)
Verse 1
A screen (D major) door slams,
(G major) Mary's dress (D major) sways (A major) (D major)
Like a vision she dances across (A major) the porch
As the (G major) radio plays
Roy Orbison singing (D major) (B minor) for the (A major) lonely
Hey, (F sharp minor) that's (D major) me, and I want you only (G major)
Don't turn me home again
(D major) I (A major) just (D major) can (F sharp minor) 't face my (B minor) self
(A major) alone again (Asus4) (A major)
Don't run (D major) back inside, darling
(G major) You know just what I'm here (D major) for (A major) (D major) (A major)
So you're scared (D major) and you're thinking
That may (A major) be we ain't
that young (G major) anymore
Show a little faith,
there's ma (A major) gic (G major) in the (A major) night
(G major) You ain't a (D major) beauty but,
hey, (E minor) you're (D major) al right (G major)
Oh, (D major) (A major) and (D major) that's alright with (A major) (Asus4) (A major) me

Verse 2
You can hide (D major) 'neath your covers
and study (B minor) your pain
Make crosses (D major) from your lovers,
throw (G major) roses in the rain (D major)
Waste your summer (F sharp minor) praying in vain
For a savior (G major) to rise from
these (A major) streets (Asus4)
Well now (D major) I'm no hero, that's un (B minor) derstood
All the redemp (D major) tion I can offer, girl
Is (G major) beneath this dirty hood
(D major) With a chance to make it (F sharp minor) good somehow
Hey, what (G major) else can we do (A major) now?
Except roll (D major) down the window
And (G major) let the wind blow (D major) back your hair
Well, the night's busting open
These (F sharp minor) two lanes will take us (G major) anywhere
We got one last chance to make it (A major) real
To trade (D major) in these wings
on some (G major) wheels
Climb in (D major) back (G major) ,
heav (D major) en's (A major) waiting down (B minor) on (A major) the tracks (Asus4) (A major)
Verse 3
(D major) Oh- oh, come take (B minor) my hand
We're (D major) riding out tonight to (G major) case
the promised land (D major)
Oh- oh, (F sharp minor) Thunder Road
Oh, (G major) Thunder Road, oh, (A major) Thunder Road
(D major) Lying out there like a killer (B minor) in the sun
Hey, (D major) I know it's late,
we can (G major) make it if we run
(D major) Oh- oh, (F sharp minor) Thunder Road
Sit tight, (G major) take hold (A major)
Thunder (D major) Road
Verse 4
Well, I got (G major) this guitar
And I (A major) learned how to make it talk (D major)
And my car's (B minor) out back
If you're ready to take that (G major) long (A major) walk
From your front (G major) porch to my front (A major) seat
The door's (F sharp minor) open but the ride ain't (B minor) free
And I (G major) know you're lonely (B minor) for words
that (E minor) I ain't spoken (G major)
Tonight (A major) we'll be free, (Asus4)
all (A major) the promises'll be broken
Verse 5
There were (D major) ghosts in the eyes
Of (G major) all the boys you sent (D major) away
They haunt this dusty beach road
On the skeleton (F sharp minor) frames of
burned (G major) out Chevrolets
They scream your name at night
in the street (A major)
Your graduation (D major) gown lies
in rags at their (G major) feet
And in the (F sharp minor) lonely cool before dawn
You hear their (G major) engines roaring on
When you (E minor) get to the (C sharp minor) porch
(B minor) They're (A major) gone on the (G major) wind
So Mary, climb (E minor) in
It's a town (G major) full of losers
I'm (A major) pulling out of here to win
