Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Electric guitar]
[G][G][G][Bm]
[C][Em][C][Em][D]

[Verse 1]
[G]You were standing with your girlfriends
in the [Bm]street
[C]Falling back on foreve[G]r, I won[D]der
what you came to [C]be[G][Em][D]
[G]I was new in town, the boy
with the eager [Bm]eyes
[C]I never was a quitter[G], obliv[D]ious
to schoolgirls' [C]lies[G][Em][D]
[C]And when I look back
[D]on those neon nig[Em]hts[C]
The leather [Em]seats, the passage [D]rite
I feel the [C]heat, I see the [D]light

[Chorus 1]
Miss Atomic [G]Bomb
Making out, we've got the [Bm]radio on
You're gonna [C]miss me when I'm [Em]gone
You're gonna [C]miss me when I'm [Em]gone[D]
Racing [G]shadows in the moonlight
Through the [Bm]desert on a hot night
And for a [C]second there we'd [Em]won
Yeah, we were [C]innocent and [Em]young[D]
[G][G][G][G]

[Interlude 1]
[G][G][Bm][Bm]
[C][Em][C][Em][D]
[G][G][Bm][Bm]
[C][Em][C][Em][D]
[G]

[Verse 2]
[G]Cast out of the night,
well you've got a [Bm]foolish heart
So you [C]took your place but the [G]fall from grace
was the [D]hardest [C]part
It [G]feels just like a dagger
buried deep in your back
You run for [Bm]cover but you can't escape
the second attack
Your soul was [C]innocent,
she kissed him and she [G]painted it black
You should have [D]seen your little face,
[C]burnin' for [G]love
Holdin' [Em]on for your li[D]fe
[C]All that I wanted was a [D]little touch,
A little [Em]tenderness and truth,
I [C]didn't ask for much, no
[Em]Talk about being at the [D]wrong place
at the wrong [C]time[D]

[Chorus 2]
Miss Atomic [G]Bomb
Making out, we've got the [Bm]radio on
You're gonna [C]miss me when I'm [Em]gone
You're gonna [C]miss me when I'm [Em]gone[D]
Racing [G]shadows in the moonlight
Takin' [Bm]chances on a hot night
And for a [C]second there we'd [Em]won
Yeah, we were [C]innocent and [Em]young[D]

[Bridge 1]
[G]The[Bm] dust cloud has set[C]tled
[G]and my [D]eyes are[C] clear
[Bm]But sometimes in dream[Em]s of impact
[D]I still h[C]ear

[Chorus 3]
Miss Atomic [G]Bomb, I'm standing here
[Bm]Sweat on my skin
[C]And this lov[Em]e that I've cradled
[C]Is wea[Em]ring thi[D]n
[G]But I'm standing here
[Bm]and you're too late
[C]Your sho[Em]ck-wave whisper
[C]has sea[Em]led your fat[D]e

[Outro 1]
(It [G]feels just like a dagger...)
It's a proving ground
(You run for [Bm]cover but you can't...)
And you took a chance
(Your soul was [C]innocent, she kissed him...)
on a [Em]loser's game
(You should have [C]seen your little face,
[Em]burning for [D]love)
(Holdin' [G]on for your life)
But you can't survive
(...was a [Bm]little touch)
When you want it all (I [C]didn't ask for much)
There's a[Em]nother side
(...in the [C]wrong place at the wrong [Em]time...)[D]
[Fade out]
