Iceman

Springsteen Bruce

D
Sleepy town ain't got the guts to budge
C
Baby, this emptiness has already been judged
G                                                D
I wanna go out tonight, I wanna find out what I got

You're a strange part of me, you're a preacher's girl
And I don't want no piece of this mechanical world
Got my arms open wide and my blood is running hot

F
We'll take the midnight road right to the devil's door
E
And even the white angels of Eden with their flamin' swords
G                                                           D
Won't be able to stop us from hitting town in this dirty old Ford

Well it don't take no nerve when you got nothing to guard
C
I got tombstones in my eyes and I'm running real hard
G                                             D
My baby was a lover and the world just blew her away

Once they tried to steal my heart, beat it right outta my head
C
But baby they didn't know that I was born dead
G                                              D
I am the iceman, fighting for the right to live
F
I say better than the glory roads of heaven better off riding
E
Hellbound in the dirt, better than the bright lines of the freeway

Better than the shadows of your daddy's church
G                              D
Better than the waiting, baby better off is the search
