Chords

At last! a new album from the Boss, and some cracking tunes on it, including this classic E street rocker!! yeah I know its only the chords cos I can't do the rest - if anyone else knows it please tell me!! Lyrics are taken straight out of the book, so if they're wrong then Bruce sang the wrong words. Put a capo on the first fret, and play these chords The intro is Em
                   Em                    G
Where the road is dark, and the seed is sowed,

                  Em                       G
Where the gun is cocked, and the bullet's cold,

                     Em   D               Em     D
Where the miles are marked  in blood and gold,

      C               D           Em
I'll meet you further on, up the road,

                      Em                         G
Got on my dead man's suit, and my smilin' skull ring,

                    Em                   G
My lucky graveyard boots, and a song to sing

                 Em   D                         Em     D
I got a song to sing,    to keep me out of the cold

And I'll meet you further on, up the road,

                   D                        Em
Further on up the road, further on up the road,

                  Em                    G
Where the way is dark and the night is cold,

One sunny mornin'  we'll rise I know,

                       Em                    G
Now I been out in the desert, just doin' my time,

                      Em                  G
Searchin through the dust, lookin' for a sign,

                         D                          Em
If there's a light up ahead, well brother I don't know,

                Em                    B
But I got this fever, burnin' in my soul,

                   Em        D           Em   D
So let's take the good times,   as they go,
