G5

            F5
Brave young cowboys
                  E5
of the near north side
                   C5
mount those bridge rails
         G5
ride all night
            F5
scream when captured
          E5
arch your back
         G5         D5       C5
let this whole town hear your knuckles crack

G5

         F5           
Sapphire trans am
              E5
high beams in vain
           C5
drive like broncos
         G5
down the plain
               F5
push up to the corner
                   E5
where the turbines hiss
    G5      D5    C5
someday we won't remember this


           G5
crawl till dawn
D5                  C5
on my hand and knees
               G5
God damn these vampires
D5                             C/C5          C/C/C5
    for what they've done to  me

G5

          F5
Tie those horses
            E5
to the post outside
              C5
and let those glass doors
     G5
open wide
             F5
and in their surface
                     E5
see two young savage things
G5      D5    C5
barely worth remembering

G5

           F5
feast like pagans
           E5
never get enough
           C5
sleep like dead men
             G5
wake up like dead men
             F5
and when the sun comes
                    E5
try not to hate the light
     G5        D5    C5
some day we'll try to walk upright

           G5
crawl till dawn
D5                  C5
on my hand and knees
               G5
god damn these bite marks
D5                       C/C5      C/C/C5
     deep in my arteries


           G5
crawl till dawn
D5                  C5
on my hand and knees
               G5
god damn these vampires
D5                              C/C5     C/C/C5
    for what they've done to me
