INTRO: (E Guitar)
Eb   F        Eb   F
(+Piano)
Eb F Eb F VERSE 1:
Eb  F                            Bb
The sirens are screaming and the fires are howling,

    F
Way down in the valley tonight.

Eb        F                         Am
There's a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye,

      Bb
And a blade shining oh so bright.     

        F                           C
There's evil in the air and there's thunder in the sky,

      Dm                   C    Bb (Fill)
And a killer's on the bloodshot streets.

       F                            C
Oh and down in the tunnel where the deadly are rising,

     Dm                      Bb/D
Oh I swear I saw a young boy down in the gutter.

       Bb/D                    C    Bb/C    C    Bb/C
He was starting to foam in the heat.
BRIDGE 1:
   Bb                             C               
Oh Baby, you're the only thing in this whole world, 

       F                 Bb
That's pure and good and right.

        Bb                   C
And wherever you are and wherever you go,

        Bb           Bb/C    F
There's always gonna be some light.

      Bb                     C
But I gotta get out, I gotta break it out now,

  Dm                      Bb (Fill)
Before the final crack of dawn.

      F                          C
So we gotta make the most of our one night together.

          Bb                   Bb         C    Bb/C    C Bb/C   C 
When it's over you know, we'll both be so alone.
CHORUS 1:
       F                        Bb                    F (Fill)
Like a bat out of hell, I'll be gone when the morning comes.

         F                     Am 
When the night is over, like a bat out of hell,

        Bb    Am    Gm (Fill)
I'll be gone, gone, gone.

       F                        C                     Bb   
Like a bat out of hell, I'll be gone when the morning comes.
(Slower)
Bb C Bb/D C/E      F                   C
      But when the day is done and the sun goes down,

    Bb         Bb  F/A  Gm7   F/A   Bb   C
And moonlight's shining through.
LINK 1: (Calmer)
            F        Am/E     Dm       F/C
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven,

          Bb          Bb/A    Gm7      Bb C     Bb C
I'll come crawling on back to you.
VERSE 2: (A Tempo)
    F                            Bb
I'm gonna hit the highway like a battering ram,

     F (Fill)
On a silver black phantom bike.

         F                    Am
When the metal is hot and the engine is hungry,

          Bb (Fill)
And we're all about to see the light.

F                          C
Nothing ever grows in this rotting old hole,

Dm                    C   Bb (Fill)
Everything is stunted and lost.

    F                         C
And nothing really rocks, and nothing really rolls, 

    Bb             Bb/C      F
And nothing's ever worth the cost.
BRIDGE 2:
      Bb            C           F
And I know that I'm damned if I never get out,

    Bb        C           F
And maybe I'm damned if I do.

         Bb          C          Dm (Fill)
But with every other beat I got left in my heart,

             Bb        C           F
You know I'd rather be damned with you.

     F                          C
If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned,

Bb                  C          F
Dancing through the night with you.

     F                          C
If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned.

F                          Bb9
Gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned.

     F                          C            
If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned.

Bb                  C
Dancing through the night,

Bb                  C
Dancing through the night,

Bb                  C          F      F  (Gliss.)
Dancing through the night with you.
