INTRO:
(E Guitar)
Eb(+PiaFno) Eb F
Eb F Eb F
VERSE 1:
EbThe Fsirens are screaming and the Bbfires are howling,
Way Fdown in the valley tonight.
EbThere's a Fman in the shadows with a Amgun in his eye,
And a Bbblade shining oh so bright.
There's Fevil in the air and there's Cthunder in the sky,
Dm C Bb (Fill)
And a killer's on the bloodshot streets.
Oh and Fdown in the tunnel where the Cdeadly are rising,
Oh I Dmswear I saw a young boy Bb/Ddown in the gutter.
Bb/D C Bb/C C Bb/C
He was starting to foam in the heat.
BRIDGE 1:
Oh BbBaby, you're the only thing in Cthis whole world,
That's Fpure and good and Bbright.
And wherBbever you are and wherCever you go,
Bb Bb/C F
There's always gonna be some light.
But I Bbgotta get out, I gotta Cbreak it out now,
Dm Bb (Fill)
Before the final crack of dawn.
So we Fgotta make the most of our Cone 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.
When the Fnight is over, like a Ambat out of hell,
Bb Am Gm (Fill)
I'll be gone, gone, gone.
Like a Fbat out of hell, I'll be Cgone when the morning Bbcomes.
(Slower)
Bb C Bb/D But C/Ewhen the Fday is done and the Csun goes down,
And Bbmoonlight'sBb shiF/Aning Gm7througF/Ah. Bb C
LINK 1:
(Calmer)
Then like a Fsinner beAm/Efore the Dmgates of F/Cheaven,
Bb Bb/A Gm7 Bb C Bb C
I'll come crawling on back to you.
VERSE 2:
(A Tempo)
I'm Fgonna hit the highway like a Bbbattering ram,
F (Fill)
On a silver black phantom bike.
When the Fmetal is hot and the Amengine is hungry,
Bb (Fill)
And we're all about to see the light.
FNothing ever grows in this Crotting old hole,
Dm C Bb (Fill)
Everything is stunted and lost.
And Fnothing really rocks, and Cnothing really rolls,
Bb Bb/C F
And nothing's ever worth the cost.
BRIDGE 2:
And I Bbknow that I'm Cdamned if I Fnever get out,
And Bbmaybe I'm Cdamned if I Fdo.
Bb C Dm (Fill)
But with every other beat I got left in my heart,
You know I'd Bbrather be Cdamned with Fyou.
If I Fgotta be damned you know I Cwanna be damned,
BbDancing through the Cnight with Fyou.
If I Fgotta be damned you know I Cwanna be damned.
FGotta be damned you know I Bb9wanna be damned.
If I Fgotta be damned you know I Cwanna be damned.
BbDancing through the Cnight,
BbDancing through the Cnight,
Bb C F F (Gliss.)
Dancing through the night with you.
