Capo 3
[G]
[G]You were standing with your girlfriends in[Dsus4]in the streets
[Cadd9]Falling back on[Em7]on foreve[Dsus4]forever, I wonder what [Em7-Cadd9-Em7-Dsus4]you came to be
[G]I was new in town, the boy with the eager [Dsus4]eyes
[Cadd9]I never was a qu[Em7]quitter, [Dsus4]oblivious to school[Em7-Cadd9-Em7-Dsus4]schoolgirls' lies
[Cadd9]When I look back on those neon n[Em7]nights
The leather seats, the passage rite
[Cadd9]I feel the heat, I see the [Em7-Dsus4]light
[G]Miss Atomic Bomb
Making out, w[Dsus4]we've got the radio on
[Cadd9]You're gonna miss me when I[Em7]I'm gone
[Cadd9]You're gonna miss me when I[Em7-Dsus4]I'm gone
[G]Racing shadows in the moonlight
Through th[Dsus4]the desert on a hot night
[Cadd9]And for a second there we'd [Em7]won
[Cadd9]Yeah, we were innocent and y[Em7-Dsus4]young
G - Dsus4 - Cadd9 - Em7 - Cadd9 - Em7-Dsus4 (2x)
[G]Cast out of the night, well you've got a foolish[Dsus4]foolish heart
[Cadd9]So you took your place but t[Em7]he
fall from grace was the h[A7sus4]ardest part[Em7-Dsus4]
[G]It feels just like a dagger buried deep in your b[Dsus4]back
You run for cover but you can't escape the second attack
[Cadd9]Your soul was innocent, she kissed him and she[Em7]she painted it black
[Cadd9]You should have seen your little face, burnin' fo[Em7-A7sus4]for love
Em7-Dsus4
Holdin on' for your life
[Cadd9]All that I wanted was a litt[Em7]little touch,
A little tenderness and truth, I didn't ask for much, no
[Cadd9]Talk about being at the wrong place at the wrong time
[G]Miss Atomic Bomb
Making o[Dsus4]out, we've got the radio on
[Cadd9]You're gonna miss me when I'm[Em7]I'm gone
[Cadd9]You're gonna miss me when I'm[Em7-Dsus4]I'm gone
[Chorus]
[G]Racing shadows in the moonlight
[Dsus4]We're taking chances on a hot night
[Cadd9]And for a second there we'd won[Em7]won
[Cadd9]Yeah we were innocent and young[Em7-Dsus4]young
[G]The dust cloud has settled, and my eyes are clear
But sometimes in dreams of impact I still hear
[G]Miss Atomic Bomb, I'm standing he[Dsus4]here
[Cadd9]Sweat on my skin
And this l[Em7]love that I've cradle[Cadd9]cradled
Is wearing th[Em7-Dsus4]thin (Miss Atomic Bomb) [G]
But I'm standing here [Dsus4]and you're too late [Cadd9]
You[Em7]r shock-wave wh[Cadd9]isper has seale[Em7-Dsus4]d your fate
[G]It feels just like a dagger buried deep in your back ([Dsus4](It's so cruel [?])
You run for cover but you can't escape the
second attack (and you turn your back, you're so)
[Cadd9]Your soul was innocent, she kissed him
and she pai[Em7]painted it black (on a losing game)
[Cadd9]You should have seen your little face, burning for[Em7-Dsus4]for love,
[G](Miss Atomic Bomb) Holdin' on for your life
[Dsus4]But you can't survive (All that I wanted was a little touch)
[G]When you want it all (A little tenderness and truth, I[Dsus4]I didn't ask for much)
[Cadd9]There's another side (Talk about being at the wrong[Em7]wrong place at the wrong time)
