The screen door slams, Mary's dress waves
C Bb
Like a vision she dances across the porch as the radio plays
C
Roy Orbison singing for the lonely
F Bb
Hey that's me and I want you only
F C
Don't turn me home again, I just can't face myself alone again
F Bb F
Don't run back inside, darling you know just what I'm here for
So you're scared and you're thinking
C Bb
That maybe we ain't that young anymore
C
Show a little faith, there's magic in the night
F Bb

Make crosses from your lovers, throw roses in the rain
F Am
Waste your summer praying in vain
Bb C7
For a saviour to rise from these streets
F Dm
Well now I'm no hero, that's understood

F Am
With a chance to make it good somehow
Bb C7
Hey what else can we do now?
F Bb F
Except roll down the window and let the wind blow back your hair
Well the night's busting open
Am Bb

F Bb

F C C7
Climb in back: Heaven's waiting down on the tracks
F Dm
Oh-oh come take my hand
F Bb
We're riding out tonight to case the promised land
F Am Bb C
Oh-oh Thunder Road, oh Thunder Road, oh Thunder Road,

And my car's out back if you're ready to take that long walk
Bb C
From your front porch to my front seat
Am Dm
The door's open but the ride it ain't free
Bb Gm Bb
And I know you're lonely and there's words that I ain't spoken
C
But tonight we'll be free, all the promises'll be broken
F Bb F
There were ghosts in the eyes of all the boys you sent away
They haunt this dusty beach road
C Bb
In the skeleton frames of burned out Chevrolets

They scream your name at night in the street
F Bb
Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet and in the
