Piano Chords :
The [C]rangers had a hom[G]ecom[F]ing in Harle[C]m late last nig[G]ht[F] [C]
And the Magic Rat drove his sleek machine over the Jersey state line
Barefoot girl sitting on the hood of a Dodge
Drinking warm beer in the soft summer rain
The [D]Rat pulls into tow[E]n rolls up [F]his pan[G]ts
[D]Together they take a sta[E]b at rom[F]ance and disappear down Flamingo Lane[C]
Well the Maximum Lawman run down Flamingo chasing the Rat and the barefootgirl
And the kids round here look just like shadows always quiet, holding hands
From the churches to the jails tonight all is silence in the world
As we [D]take our [E]stand [F] [G] [D]down [E]in Jun-gle[F]-lan[G]d[C]
The [C]midnight gang's assembled[G] an[F]d picked a rend[C]ezvous for the night[G] [F] [C]
They'll meet `neath that giant Exxon sign that brings this fair city light
Man there's an opera out on the Turnpike
There's a ballet being fought out in the alley
Until the local cops, Cherry Tops, rips this holy night
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/bruce_springsteen/jungleland_tab.html )
[D]The street's ali[E]ve as secret deb[F]ts are pai[G]d
Contacts [D]made, they vani[E]sh uns[F]een[G]
Kids [D]flash guitar[E]s just like swi[F]tch-blades[G]
[D]hustling for the record [E]machine[F] [G]
The [Bb]hungry and the hunted ex[D]plode into rock'n'roll bands[C] [C]
That [Bb]face off against each other out in the [(Bb)]street down in
In the [D]parking lot the visi[F]onaries dress i[C]n the latest rage[G]
[D]Inside the backstreet girls are [F]dancing to the records that [F]the [G]D.[G]J. plays
[D]Lonely-hearted lovers stru[F]ggle in dark corners
[C]Desperate as the night [G]moves on, [C]just a look and a whisper, [F]and [G]they're [G]gone
Sax solo
Beneath the city two hearts beat
Soul engines running through a night so tender in a bedroom locked
In whispers of soft refusal and then surrender in the tunnels uptown
The Rat's own dream guns him down as shots echo down them hallways in thenight
No one watches when the ambulance pulls away
Or as the girl shuts out the bedroom light
Outside the [D]street's on fire in a real death waltz[C]
Between [D]flesh and what's [C]fantasy and the [D]poets down here
Don't write [F]nothing at all, they just [G]stand back and let it all [D]be
And in the [Bb]quick of the night they reach for their moment
And try to make an honest stand bu[D]t they wind up wounded, n[Bb]ot even dead
C…
Tonight in Jungleland
