[Intro]
D C x6
[Verse 1]
DJune had dark eyes
D CShe was a maker of the rain
C GOne side of her wild
G CThe other still like the plains
C DShe had smoke on her breath
D CAnd a light on her face
C GThat said I don't want to be
G DA stone no more
DWell the full moon was high
D CHanging clear the air was sweet
C GAnd the road was full of promise
G CLike the wheels at her feet
C DSo she stole that old Mustang
D CTook it round to her boyfriends
C GAnd said I know a place
G DWe can go
[Pre-chorus]
D AIt's a long, long ride
A CTo the next town boy
C A GIf you want to start something new
AGive me just a little
A CAnd I'll give it back to you
[Chorus]
D C G D COoh, fire in the streets tonight
D C G D COoh, fire in the streets tonight
[Instrumental]
D C x4
[Verse 2]
C DWell they drove all night
D CInto a pale pink dawn
C GAcross the great salt plains
G CThrough the eye of the storm
C DAcross the rivers and the deserts
D CAnd the great divide
C GFast as lightning
G DOn a midnight mile
DAnd they snuck into the back streets
D COf a backwater town
C GAnd they idled at the gas station
CNobody round
C DBut then a voice came loud
D CSaying hands in the air
C GTurn the engine off
G DAnd step outside
[Pre-chorus]
D AIt's a long, long ride
A CTo the next town boy
C A GIf you want to start something new
AGive me just a little
A CAnd I'll give it back to you
[Chorus]
D C G D COoh, fire in the streets tonight
D C G D COoh, fire in the streets tonight
CYeah!
[Instrumental]
D C x5
[Verse 3]
C DWell they raced through the night
D CJune was mad as a loon
C GAnd she laughed like thunder
G CAnd she howled at the moon
C DThey flew across the interstate
CRunning from the law
C G DShe said now I ain't a stone no more
DAnd the road was black and slick
D CLike oil across the lake
C GAnd they overshot a corner
CSmashed right through the gate
C DAnd they leapt into the sky
D CAnd they floated off the ground
D GAnd they steered towards the heavens
G CAnd they still ain't come back down
[Chorus]
D C G D COoh, fire in the streets tonight
D C G D COoh, fire in the streets tonight
D C G D COoh, fire in the streets tonight
D C G D COoh, fire in the streets tonight
[Outro]
