VERSE 1: EbFBb The sirens are screaming and the fires are howling, F Way down in the valley tonight. EbFAm There's a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye, Bb And a blade shining oh so bright. FC There's evil in the air and there's thunder in the sky, DmCBb (Fill) And a killer's on the bloodshot streets. FC Oh and down in the tunnel where the deadly are rising, DmBb/D Oh I swear I saw a young boy down in the gutter. Bb/DCBb/CCBb/C He was starting to foam in the heat.
BRIDGE 1: BbC Oh Baby, you're the only thing in this whole world, FBb That's pure and good and right. BbC And wherever you are and wherever you go, BbBb/CF There's always gonna be some light. BbC But I gotta get out, I gotta break it out now, DmBb (Fill) Before the final crack of dawn. FC So we gotta make the most of our one night together. BbBbCBb/CCBb/CC When it's over you know, we'll both be so alone.
CHORUS 1: FBbF (Fill) Like a bat out of hell, I'll be gone when the morning comes. FAm When the night is over, like a bat out of hell, BbAmGm (Fill) I'll be gone, gone, gone. FCBb Like a bat out of hell, I'll be gone when the morning comes. (Slower) BbCBb/DC/EFC But when the day is done and the sun goes down, BbBbF/AGm7F/ABbC And moonlight's shining through.
LINK 1: (Calmer) FAm/EDmF/C Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven, BbBb/AGm7BbCBbC I'll come crawling on back to you.
VERSE 2: (A Tempo) FBb I'm gonna hit the highway like a battering ram, F (Fill) On a silver black phantom bike. FAm When the metal is hot and the engine is hungry, Bb (Fill) And we're all about to see the light. FC Nothing ever grows in this rotting old hole, DmCBb (Fill) Everything is stunted and lost. FC And nothing really rocks, and nothing really rolls, BbBb/CF And nothing's ever worth the cost.
BRIDGE 2: BbCF And I know that I'm damned if I never get out, BbCF And maybe I'm damned if I do. BbCDm (Fill) But with every other beat I got left in my heart, BbCF You know I'd rather be damned with you. FC If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned, BbCF Dancing through the night with you. FC If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned. FBb9 Gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned. FC If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned. BbC Dancing through the night, BbC Dancing through the night, BbCFF (Gliss.) Dancing through the night with you.
BRIDGE 1: BbC Oh Baby, you're the only thing in this whole world, FBb That's pure and good and right. BbC And wherever you are and wherever you go, BbBb/CF There's always gonna be some light.

LINK 2: (Offbeat) CBb/DC/EFAm/EDmF/C Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven, I'll come BbBb/AGm7 Crawling on back to you. (Calmer) FAm/EDmF/C Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven, BbBb/AGm7 I'll come crawling on back to you.
