G Em One soft infested summer me and Terry became friends G Em Trying in vain to breathe the fire we was born in G Em Catching rides to the outskirts tying faith between our teeth D C D Sleeping in that old abandoned beach house getting wasted in the heat G C G C And hiding on the backstreets, hiding on the backstreets G Am7 G Em With a love so hard and filled with defeat C | 2x | Running for our lives at night on them G Em

G Em Slow dancing in the dark on the beach at Stockton's Wing G Em Where desperate lovers park we sat with the last of the Duke Street Kings D C Huddled in our cars waiting for the bells that ring Am C D In the deep heart of the night we could loose from everything G C G C to go running on the backstreets, running on the backstreets G C Am G Em Terry you swore we'd live forever C | 2x | Taking it on them backstreets G Em

together A F#m Endless juke joints and Valentino drag A F#m Where dancers scraped the tears up off the streets dressed down in rags A F#m Running into the darkness some hurt bad some really dying E D At night sometimes it seemed you could hear the whole damn city crying E Blame it on the lies that killed us blame it on the truth that ran us down A D You can blame it all on me Terry it don't matter to me now E When the breakdown hit at midnight there was nothing left to say A E F#m | B | D G D7 G | But I hated him and I hated you when you went away
