Born To Run (Acoustic)—Bruce Springsteen
[Intro]
G ///C/D/ 2x
[Verse]
G C D
In the day we sweat it out on the streets of a runaway American Dream
G C D
At night we ride through mansions of Glory in suicide machines
C G C D
Sprung from cages on Highway Nine Chrome wheeled fuel injected and steppin out over the
C G C D
line baby this town rips the bones from your back its a death trap, its a suicide rap I wanna
C Am C D
get out while I'm still young, cause tramps like us, baby we were born to
G
run (repeat intro strummed)
[Verse]
G C D
Well Wendy let me in I wanna be your friend I wanna guard your dreams and visions
G C D
so just wrap your legs round these velvet rims and strap your hands cross my engines
C G C D
and to-gether we could break this trap, gonna run till we drop and baby we'll never look
C G C D
back, walk with me out on the wire girl I’m just a scared and lonely rider but
C Am C D
I gotta find out how it feels, I gotta know if love is wild and I wanna know if love is
G
real (repeat intro strummed)
[Bridge]
Dm F
Beyond the palace, hemi-powered drones scream down the boulevard
C Am D
Girls comb their hair in rear view mirrors and the boys try to look so hard
Dm F
the amusement park rises bold and stark as kids are huddled on the beach in the mist
C Am D
Well I wanna die with you Wendy on the street tonight in an everlasting kiss
[Verse]
G C D
Well the highways jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive,
G C D
everybody's out on the run tonight and there's no place left to hide
C G C D
To-gether wendy we'll live with the sadness, I love you with all the madness in my
C G C D
soul someday girl I don't know when we'll get to that place we really wanna
C Am C D
go and we'll walk in the sun, til then tramps like us, baby we were born to
G
Run
[Outro]
