Intro:  Am - Am - F - G  (x2)



Verse 1:

Am                                      F                            G
You can't run away forever, But there's nothing wrong with getting a good head start

            E                                F    
You want to shut down the night, You want to shut down the sun

            Bb                        G
You want to shut away the pieces of a broken heart

Am                                           F                         G
Think of how we'd lay down together, We'd be listening to the radio so loud and so strong
 
      E                           F    
Every golden nugget coming like a gift of the gods

Bb                                   G
Someone must have blessed us when he gave us those songs



Chorus 1:

C                     C/B   Am
  I treasure your love,        I never wanna lose it

F                         C              Dm                              G
  You've been through the fires of hell, And I know you got the ashes to prove it

C                     C/B   Am                                   
  I treasure your love,        I want to show you how to use it
 
F                            C                 Dm                              G
You've been through a lot of pain in the dirt, And I know you got the scars to prove it



Bridge 1:

F             G            Am                F            G              Am
Remember everything that I told you, And I'm telling you again that it's true

            F          G                     Am
When you're alone and afraid, And you're completley amazed

                Dm                  G
To find there's nothing anybody can do, Keep on believing, and you'll discover baby



Chorus 2:

C                              C/B   Am
  There' always something magic,        There's always something new

F                           C                             Dm                      G
And when you really, really need it the most, That's when rock & roll dreams come through

C                           C/B   Am
  The beat is your's forever,        The beat is always true

F                           C                             Dm                      G
And when you really, really need it the most, That's when rock & roll dreams come through, for you



Sax Solo:  Am - Am - F - G (x2)



Verse 2:

Am                               F                        G
Once upon a time was a backbeat, Once upon a time all the chords came to life

        E                         F    
And the angels had guitars even before they had wings

       Bb                         G
If you hold onto a chorus you can get through the night 



Chorus 3:

  You've been through the fires of hell, And I know you got the ashes to prove it

C                     C/B   Am                                   
  I treasure your love,        I want to show you how to use it
 
F                            C                 Dm                              G
You've been through a lot of pain in the dirt, And I know you got the scars to prove it



Bridge 2:

F             G            Am                F            G              Am
Remember everything that I told you, and I'm telling you again that it's true

       F      G                    Am                              
You're never alone, 'cause you can put on the 'phones

            Dm                              G
And let the drummer tell your heart what to do, Keep on believing, and you'll discover baby



Chorus 3:

And when you really, really need it the most, That's when rock & roll dreams come through

C                           C/B   Am
  The beat is your's forever,        The beat is always true

And when you really, really need it the most, That's when rock & roll dreams come through
