[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D GMy big brother rode an Indian Scout
DIt was black like his jacket
GAmerican Spirit hangin' outta his mouth
DJust like our daddy
Bm G DHe kicked-started that bike one night and broke Mama's heart
GHe pointed that headlight west
A DOut where the wild things are
[Verse 2]
N.C. G
He'd call me up every couple of weeks
DFrom South California
GTalk about the desert and the Joshua Tree
DAnd his pretty girl stories
Bm G DHow he bought an Airstream trailer and a J-45 guitar
GSaid, "Little brother, you'd love it out here
A DOut where the wild things are"
[Chorus]
Bm G D AOh, it's hearts on fire and crazy dreams
Bm G D AOh, the nights ignite like gasoline
G D EmAnd light up those streets that never sleep when the sky goes dark
A DOut where the wild things are
[Verse 3]
D GI called my brother from the back of that plane
DThe second I made it
GWe started drinkin' on the strip in LA
DAnd then it got crazy
Bm G DEnded up at a house in the hills with some Hollywood stars
GKissin' on a blonde in a backyard pool
A BmOut where the wild things are
[Guitar Solo]
G D A
Bm G AOh, yeah
[Bridge]
GCouple iron horse rebels
GWild as the devil
AI knew I had to move back east
GSaid goodbye to my brother
GAt the end of that summer
ABut I knew he'd never leave
[Chorus]
Bm G D AOh, it's hearts on fire and crazy dreams
Bm G D AOh, the nights ignite like gasoline
Bm G D AAnd oh, them Indian Scouts, man, they're built for speed
Bm G D AAnd oh, they said he hit that guardrail at half past three
G D EmLit up those streets that never sleep when the sky goes dark
G D Em AWe buried him out in the wind 'neath the West Coast stars
N.C. D
Out where the wild things are
[Outro]
D G
A DOut where the wild things are
