[Verse]
G Gadd#11
My big brother rode an Indian Scout
D D/C#It was black like his jacket
G Gadd#11
American Spirit hangin' outta his mouth
D D/C#Just like our daddy
Bm G DHe kicked started that bike one night and broke mama's heart
GHe pointed that headlight west
A A/C# A DOut where the wild things are
[Verse]
N.C. G Gadd#11
He'd call me up every couple of weeks
D D/C#From South California
G Gadd#11
Talk about the desert and the Joshua Tree
D D/C#And his pretty girl stories
Bm G DAnd how he bought an Airstream trailer and a J-45 guitar
GSaid, "Little brother, you'd love it out here
A A/C# 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]
N.C. G Gadd#11
I called my brother from the back of that plane
D D/C#The second I made it
G Gadd#11
We started drinkin' on the strip in LA
D D/C#And 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
[Solo]
Bm G D A
[Bridge]
Bm G AOh, yeah
GCouple iron horse rebels
GWild as the devil
A A/C# 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 A*We buried him out in the wind 'neath the West Coast stars
N.C. D D/C# GOut where the wild things are
A D D/C# DOut where the wild things are
