Verse 1
A5                          D5               E5       A5        D5  A5
It's after midnight in the city  of        broken  dreams
A5                          D5               E5       A5        D5  A5
Down in the alley,     Galileo meets his   pack of thieves
E5
Over the river by the old hotel
          D5
There's a big car coming like a bat out of Hell
A5                                  D5        E5       A5
It's the dangerous stranger in his ghostly  limou---sine.


Verse 2
A5                             D5             E5          A5     D5  A5
You get the feeling that he's running in an endless    race
A5                               D5           E5          A5     D5  A5
Driving through the city like a razor       across its face
E5
Stops on the corner in a flash of flame
          D5
       He calls to me ('Hey boy, what's your name?)
A5                                      D5           E5        A5   A5 - Ab5 - F#5
He's the stranger with a danger if you ever get to play his game.


Chorus
F#5                 D5
I want to go for a ride
   G5                    F#5
To see what lies on the other side
D5                  B5    E5 (D5 - EEE5 , D5 - EEE5 , D5 - EEE5 )
I want to go for a ride tonight, tonight.


Verse 3
A5                             D5             E5        A5       D5  A5
I climb right in,    like a   fool I        say I'll go
A5                             D5                  E5       A5   D5  A5
I listen to the  messages     comin' through his radi----o
E5
Is that my name on channel 9? They say
          D5
 ('You're going away for a long long time')
A5                                  D5              E5     A5    A5 - Ab5 - F#5
With the dangerous stranger from a station on the other side.


Chorus
F#5                 D5
I want to go for a ride
   G5                    F#5
To see what lies on the other side
D5                  B5    E5 (D5 - EEE5 , D5 - EEE5 , D5 - EEE5 )
I want to go for a ride tonight, tonight.


Verse 4
A5                             D5             E5       A5        D5  A5
The night is black and the    stars no      longer  burn
A5                             D5                 E5    A5       D5  A5
The radio says that we're     past the point of no return
E5
I scream at the driver but he says
              D5
('No way, you shouldn't have come if you didn't want to stay')
A5                                D5              E5      A5
He's the dangerous stranger on a highway to the end of time
A5                                D5              E5      A5
He's the dangerous stranger on a highway to the end of time.
