[Intro 1]
[D]
[G]
[D][G][Asus4]
[D][G][Em]

[Verse 1]
It's a [G]bend- out,
burned- out, [D]bird- [A]hound Saturday [D]night
Under the [G]crimson cut-
[A]throat canyon [D]sky
Ah, the [A]city's on fire but
the [Bm]hills are alive
With the [G]sound of [D]this night
[Em][D]

[Verse 2]
[G]Baby leans close and she
[A]whispers she don't [D]care
She wraps her [G]legs 'round my waist
[A]Runs her fingers [D]through my hair
She rests her [A]head on these soft tail [Bm]lights
Feel the [G]world rush[D]ing under this [Em]bike
Hear the [G]cold high[D]way explode,
[Em]in rubber and fire[A]

[Verse 3]
Now the [Bm]only thing that matters
Is this [A]leather cutting [D]through
[A]this Cal[D]ifornia win[G]d
She said, [A]"Take me anywhere"
She said, "Take me everywhere"

[Verse 4]
Every[D]body's got someone
they don't wanna be
You don't [G]wanna be you,
I don't [A]wanna be me
Every[D]body's got a plan,
everybody's got a dream
I [G]ain't got nothing, I just [A]wanna be free
[D]Ain't much that's mine,
[G]but these boots and this time
[A]Maybe I'll take you right out of here
Baby, I'll take you right out of here
I'm a prize fight lover,

[Interlude 1]

[Verse 5]
Now [G]the 101 is [A]blacker
than a funeral [D]parade
[G]I grab the throttle,
left [A]a scar on the inter[D]state
You see, [A]the funny thing
about leaving [Bm]town
You leave [G]something you [D]think
you can[Em]'t live without
Now [G]we're heading [D]north,
but [Em]she's [D]looking south
[A]

[Verse 6]
She whispered [Bm]one last request,
[A]apolo[D]gize to the [A]deser[D]t w[G]ind
She said, "I'll [A]never look back again"
She said, "I'll never look back again"

[Verse 7]
Every[D]body's got someone
they don't wanna be
You don't [G]wanna be you,
I don't [A]wanna be me
Every[D]body's got a plan,
everybody's got a dream
I [G]ain't got nothing, I just [A]wanna be free
[D]Ain't much that's mine,
[G]but these boots and this time
[A]Baby, I'll take you right out of here
Baby, I'll take you right out of here
I'm a prize fight lover,
soul [D]auctioneer

[Interlude 2]
[D][G][Asus4][D]
[G][Em][Asus4][D]

[Verse 8]
I got you right [D]here,
tucked behind my ear
Whisper all your fears and your dreams to me
I can feel you here,
I feel your scarred soul speak
With the longing and the nerving
and its depth and its need

[Verse 9]
The [D]night is alive, this voice [G]is a knife
Riding [D]shotgun tonight
on your contra- [Em]band soul
[G]I got a k[D]een premonition,
a wild [Em]propos[G]ition
Let the [D]smoldering hunger
in [G]you ex[D]plode
[A]

[Verse 10]
She ripped [Bm]the knife from the scene
With a fu[A]gitive [D]scream
[A]and a g[D]ypsy pra[G]yer
She said, [A]"Take me anywhere"
She said, "Take me everywhere"

[Verse 11]
Every[D]body's got someone
they don't wanna be
You don't [G]wanna be you,
I don't [A]wanna be me
Every[D]body's got a plan,
everybody's got a dream
[G]I ain't got nothing,
I just [A]wanna be free
[D]Ain't much that's mine,
but these [G]boots and this time
[A]Baby, I'll take you right out of here
Baby, I'll take you right out of here
Baby, I'll take you right out of here
I'm a prize fight lover, soul
I'm a prize fight lover,
