He was a poor boy, raised in a small family
A Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Asus4 A Asus4
He kind of had a craving for something no one else could see
A Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Asus4 A Asus4
They said that he was crazy, the kind that no lady should meet
A Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Asus4 A Asus4 A
He ran off to the city, and wandered around in the street
Dsus4 E5 E A/E E E5 E
He wants to dance, oh yeah!
A/E E E5 E A/E E E5 E
He wants to sing, oh yeah!
A/E G D Asus4 A
He wants to see the lights aflashing, and listen to the thundering
Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Asus4 A Asus4
He saw it in a win___dow, a mark of a new kind of man
A Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Asus4 A Asus4
He kind of liked the feeling, so shiny smooth in his hand
A C G C G D A
He took it to the country, and practised for days without rest
Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Asus4 A Asus4 A
And then one day he felt it, he knew he could stand with the best
E5 E A/E E E5 E
They got respect, oh yeah!
A/E E E5 E A/E E E5 E
He wants the same, oh yeah!

Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Asus4 A Asus4
A poster on a store front, a picture of a wanted man
A Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Asus4
He had a reputation, spreading like fire through the land
Dsus4 D A
It wasn't for the money, at least it didn't start that way
Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Asus4 A7
It wasn't for the running, but now he's running ev'ryday.
