The key signature of this song is "C" or "Am" depending on how you want to call it, but
the song centers around the core of "A", "D", and "E". These would make one think the song
was in "A", but then the "C", "F", and "G" chords and notes would not be native to "A".

[Verse 1]
A
Come on over baby got nothin' to lose
D
Well you never get enough o' those highway blues
A D
Just another road to freedom and you know that it ain't no crime
A
Can't you hear it baby like thunder I know
D
It's like the magic and the passion of rock and roll
A D
It's like a Harley motorcycle, raging out of control
[Pre Chorus]

Now you twist the throttle up
E
With all your might
[Chorus] (Played with the riff)

Dangerous, that's why you love it
A D
Dangerous, that's why you love it
[Verse 2]
A
Well you like to drive fast baby and so do I
D
Slide up right beside me watch the broken lines fly
A D
'Cause there's no one who can catch us just let anybody give it a try
A
Can't you hear it baby like thunder I know
D
It's like the magic and the passion of rock 'n' roll
A D
You're a rebel and you know it, and you're not afraid to throw it away
