Bruce Springsteen - Moonlight motel

^DThere's a place on a ^Bmblank stretch of road where ^GNobody travels and nobody ^Agoes and the ^DDeskman says these ^Bmdays 'round here Where ^Gtwo young folks could probably up and disa^Appear into ^GRustlin' sheets, a sleepy ^Dcorner room ^BmInto the ^Bm/Amusty s^Gmell Of ^Dwilted flowers and lazy ^Bmafternoon hours At the ^GMoon^Alight Mo^Dtel^{Bm G A}

Now the ^Dpool's filled with empty, ^Bmeight foot deep Got ^Gdandelions growin' up through the cracks in the ^Aconcrete ^DChain-link fence half-^Bmrusted away Got a ^Gsign, says, "Children, be careful how you ^Aplay" ^GYour lipstick taste and your ^Dwhispered secret I ^Bmpromised ^Bm/AI'd never ^Gtell A ^Dhalf-drunk beer and your ^Bmbreath in my ear At the ^GMoon^Alight Mo^Dtel^{Bm G A}

Well then, it's ^Gbills and kids and ^D/F#kids and bills And the ^Bmringing ^Bm/Aof the ^Gbell Across the ^Dvalley floor through the ^Bmdusty screen door Of the ^GMoon^Alight Mo^Dtel^{Bm G A}

^DLast night I dreamed of ^Bmyou, my lover And the ^Gwind blew through the window and blew off the ^Acovers Of my ^Dlonely bed, I woke to ^Bmsomething you said That it's ^Gbetter to have loved, yeah, it's better to have ^Aloved ^GAs I drove, there was a ^Dchill in the breeze And leaves ^Bmtumbled from the ^Bm/Asky and ^Gfell On a ^Droad so black as ^BmI backtracked To the ^GMoon^Alight Mo^Dtel^Bm She was ^Gboarded up and gone like an ^Dold summer song ^BmNothing but an ^Bm/Aempty ^Gshell I ^Dpulled in and stopped into ^Bmmy old spot

I pulled a ^Gbottle of Jack out of a ^Dpaper bag Poured one for ^Bmme and one for ^Bm/Ayou as ^Gwell Then it was ^Done more shot poured out onto the ^Bmparking lot To the ^GMoon^Alight Mo^Dtel^{Bm G A D}
