G C G
Johnny's out, cruising down the fast food strip
C
He rides the high-wheeler Ford
Am D G
He's down here every evening since the school let out
C D
An ordinary man would be bored
G C G
Johnny's got the hunger of a high school heart
C
And a tank full of minimum-wage
Am D G
So it's six lights down, six lights back
C D G
Pacing like a lion in a cage
C G
He's running on a tether
C G
Tearing at the ground
C G D
Trying to find a way to break the chain
C G
This howling in the distance
C G
It's a captivating sound
C G D
Can't tell if it's ecstasy or pain
Am D G
Saturday they'll all be back again
G C G
All those engines pulling all night long
C
Still makes a slow moving train
Am D G
They can scream out their freedom when the light turns green
C Am D
But they're bound to come 'round again
G C G
Standing at a distance there's the dark haired girl
C
Johnny doesn't know her name
Am D G
He howls his engine like a big, black dog
C D G
Choking on his collar by his chain
C G C G
It's lonely, like hunger
C Am D
Driven to the same old place
C G C G
Rumble like thunder
C G
Don't you think that Angels hear
Am D G
The passion of this human race?
C G
Running on a tether,
C G
tearing at the ground
C G D
Trying to find a way to break the chain
C G
This howling in the distance
C G
It's a captivating sound
C G D
Can't tell if it's ecstasy or pain
Am D G
Saturday they'll all be back again
Am D G
Saturday they'll all be back again
