VERSE:
E B A NOTE 1: THIS PART IS PLAYED LIKE THE
Lights out tonight INTRO. SAME BEAT.
Trouble in the he[C#m]artla[B]nd
[E]Got a head-on collision[B] [A]
Smashin' in my [C#m]guts, m[B]an
I'm ca[E]ught in a cross fire
Th[A]at I don't u[B]nderst[E]and
But there's one th[A]ing I know for s[B]ure girl
VERSE:
[E]I don't give a damn[B] [A]
For the same old played out [C#m]scene[B]s
[E]I don't give a damn[B] [A]
For just the in b[C#m]etwee[B]ns
[E]Honey, I want the heart, I want the [A]soul
I want contr[B]ol right n[E]ow
You better l[A]isten to me b[B]aby
BREAK:
[A]Talk about a dream
Try to make it real
You wa[B]ke up in the night
With a fear so real
[A]Spend your life waiting
For a moment that just don't c[B]ome
Well, don't waste your time w[A]ait[B]ing
CHORUS:
[E]Badlands, you g[B]otta [A]live it eve[C#m]ryda[B]y
Let the br[E]oken hearts stand
[B]As the [A]price you've gotta [C#m]pay[B]
We'll keep p[E]ushin' till it's understood
And these b[A]adlands start tr[B]eating us g[E]ood[A] [B]
VERSE:
Workin' in the fields
Till you get your back burned
Workin' `neath the wheel
Till you get your facts learned
Baby I got my facts
Learned real good right now
You better get it straight darling
Poor man wanna be rich,
Rich man wanna be king
And a king ain't satisfied
Till he rules everything
I wanna go out tonight,
I wanna find out what I got
BREAK:
Well I believe in the love that you gave me
I believe in the faith that could save me
I believe in the hope
and I pray that some day
It may raise me above these
CHORUS:
Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand
As the price you've gotta pay
We'll keep pushin' till it's understood
And these badlands start treating us good

[E]Mmmmmmmm, M[A]mmmm, M[B]mmmmm -- 4x's
For the o[E]nes who had a notion,
