Blinded by the Light Bruce Springsteen
Capo on II
[D]Madman drummers bummers and [G]Indians in the summer with a [A7]teenage diplomat[D]
In the [D]dumps with the mumps as the [G]adolescent pumps his [A7]way into his h[D]at
With a [D]boulder on my shoulder, [G]feelin' kinda older I [A7]tripped the merry-go-[D]round
With this [D]very unpleasing, [G]sneezing and wheezing, the ca[A7]lliope crashed to the groun[D]d
Some [D]all-hot half-shot was [G]headin' for a hot spot [A7]snappin' his fingers clappin' his hand[D]s
And some [D]fleshpot mascot was [G]tied into a lover's knot with a [A7]whatnot in her han[D]d
And now [D]young Scott with a slingshot [G]finally found a tender spot and [A7]throws his lover in the san[D]d
And some [D]bloodshot forget-me-not whispers, "[G]Daddy's within earshot, save the [A7]buckshot, turn up the band"[D]
Chorus:
And she was [G]blinded [A]by the [D]light
Oh, cut [G]loose like a [A]deuce another [D]runner in the night
Bli[G]nded [A]by the [D]light[Bm]
[A]She got down but she never got tight, but she'll [G]make it al[D]right
[G] [Bm]
Some [D]brimstone baritone [G]anti-cyclone rolling stone preacher from the eas[D]t
He says, "[D]Dethrone the dictaphone, [G]hit it in its funny bone, that's where they expect it least[D]"
And some [D]new-mown chaperone was [G]standin' in the corner all alone watchin' the young girls danc[D]e
And some [D]fresh-sown moonstone was [G]messin' with his frozen zone to remind him of the feeling of ro[D]mance
Chorus:
And she was [G]blinded [A]by the [D]light
Oh, cut [G]loose like a [A]deuce another [D]runner in the night
Bli[G]nded [A]by the [D]light[Bm]
[A]He got down but he never got tight, but [G]he's gonna make it[D] to[G]night[Bm]
Some [A]silicone sister with her manager's mister [G]told me I got what it [D]takes
She said, "I'll [A]turn you on sonny, to something strong if you'll play that [G]song with the funky [D]break"
And [A]Go-cart Mozart was checkin' out the weather chart to [G]see if it was safe to go out[D]side
And [A]little Early-Pearly came by in her curly-wurly and [G]asked me if I needed a [D]ride
Oh, some [D]hazard from Harvard was [G]skunked on beer playin' backyard bombardier[D]
Yes and [D]Scotland Yard was trying hard, they [G]sent a dude with a calling card who said,
"Do what you like, but don't do it here"[D]
Well, I [D]jumped up, turned around, [G]spit in the air, fell on the ground, asked him which was the way back [D]home
He said, "Take a [D]right at the light, keep goin' [G]straight until night, and then, boys, you're on your own"[D]
And now in [D]Zanzibar a shootin' star was [G]ridin' in a side car hummin' a lunar tune[D]
Yes, and the [D]avatar said, "Blow the bar but [G]first remove the cookie jar
we're gonna teach those boys to laugh too soon"[D]
And some [D]kidnapped handicap was comp[G]lainin' that he caught the clap from some mousetrap he bought last nigh[D]t
Well I un[D]snapped his skull cap, be[G]tween his ears I saw a gap and figured he'd be all righ[D]t
Chorus:
He was just [G]blinded [A]by the [D]light
Cut [G]loose like a [A]deuce another [D]runner in the night
Bli[G]nded [A]by the [D]light[Bm]
[A]Mama always told me not to look into the sights of the [G]sun
[D]Whoa , but mama that's where the [G]fun is[D] Ooh, yeah[G]
(I was [D]blinded) Oh my m[G]y, oh my my
(I was [D]blinded) Oh my [G]my
(I was [D]blinded) I was [G]blinded by the light
(I was [D]blinded) I was [G]blinded by the light
(I was [D]blinded) I was [G]blinded by the light
(I was [D]blinded) I was [G]blinded by the light
(I was [D]blinded) I was [G]blinded
(I was [D]blinded)[G]
(I was [D]blinded) [G]
