This is a great song from the near universally-loathed direct-to-video Captain 
America movie from 1990.

I saw it as a young child and never forgot the chorus, so I thought I would try a tab.

The song was never released outside the movie, so the instrumental intro and fade-
out are obscured a bit by dialogue and sound effects.

The body of the song, however, is pretty correct.  Get in a Bob Seger mindset 
before you play it :-)
