G                        C                D                G
Her midnight boys are outside, scraping tears up off the street

           Em               Am            D           G
Standing guard beneath the window, where only Linda sleeps

      Em                   C                    D           G
The leader is a kid named Eddy, walkin' like an angel in defeat

    Em                    Am             D
He trashes her old man's car, slashes Linda's name in the seat
And calls out [Chorus]
G                        D             
   Linda will you let me be the one 

C                        D
   Linda will you let me be the one

G                        D              
   Linda will you let me be the one  

C                        D
   Linda will you let me be the one
[Verse 2]
      G                    C      D         G
In an old room full of contenders,   Eddy spars

        Em                       Am    D                 G
'Til he drops to his bed in surrender,   draped in the scarves

    Em                 C           D                     G
He stole from Linda's bedroom, the night he laid at her feet

          Em                 Am               D
When the midnight boys was stranded, down on Cason street
[Chorus]
G                        D             
   Linda will you let me be the one 

C                        D
   Linda will you let me be the one

G                        D              
   Linda will you let me be the one  

C                        D
   Linda will you let me be the one

        G               C     D                   G
In the basement of St. Mary's,   Eddy hides from the rain

Em                    Am                  D               G
   In with the stolen sisters, 'til the streets are dry again

    Em                  C          D
Talkin' fast cars and spare parts

D                G             Em
Empty homes and broken hearts

Em                    Am                D              
Distant worlds with strange girls and kneeling with Linda in the dark
[Chorus]
G                        D             
   Linda will you let me be the one 

C                        D
   Linda will you let me be the one

G                        D              
   Linda will you let me be the one  

C                        D
   Linda will you let me be the one

G                        D                C        D
   Linda will you let me be the one no oh ohhhhhh

G                        D                 C        D
   Linda will you let me be the one no oh ohhhhhh  Whoah

G                        D                 C       D
   Linda will you let me be the one no oh ohhhhhh

G                     D                  C       D
Linda will you let me be the one no oh ohhhhhh
