b                                                                   (Steinman)


 F      Gsus2      Am      Bb

 Dm7    Am/E       F/Bb    C


     F                      Gsus2
The skies were pure and the fields were green
    Am                          Bb
The sun was brighter than it's ever been
            Dm7                     Am/E
When I grew up with my best friend Kenny
                      Bbmaj7                 C
We were close as any brothers than you ever knew 


It was always summer and the future called
We were ready for adventures and we wanted them all
There was so much left to dream 
And so much time to make it real 


           Dm                 Am7/E
But I can still recall the sting of all 
        Bb                C
The tears when he was gone
              Dm
They said he crashed and burned
            Am7/E               Bb                 C
I know I'll never learn why any boy should die so young 
         Gm7                           C
We were racing, we were soldiers of fortune
            Dm                       Bb
We got in trouble but we sure got around
           Gm7                             C
There are times I think I see him peeling out of the dark
              Dm              Dm/C                 Bb
I think he's right behind me now and he's gaining ground 


            Am7                Dm
But it was long ago and it was far away
           Bb              C
Oh God it seems so very far
        Am7              Dm
And if life is just a highway
          Bb               C      C7
Then the soul is just a car


     F                       Gsus2              F/A    Bb        F
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
                             Gsus2              F/A              F
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are


Gm      F/A      Bb      Csus   F
                         They  are
Dm      Bb       C7sus

And when the sun descended and the night arose
I heard my father cursing everyone he knows
He was dangerous and drunk and defeated
And corroded by failure and envy and hate 


There were endless winters and the dreams would freeze
Nowhere to hide and no leaves on the trees
And my father's eyes were blank as he hit me again and again and again 

I know I still believe he'd never let me leave, I had to run away alone
So many threats and fears, so many wasted years before my life became my own 
And though the nightmares should be over
Some of the terrors are still intact
I'll hear that ugly coarse and violent voice
And then he grabs me from behind and then he pulls me back 


And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are...


(Solo:)

Gm7      C      Dm      Bb

Gm7      C      Dm      Dm/C      

Bbmaj7   Dm/C


Gm7      C      Dm      Bb

Gm7      C      Dm      Dm/C      

Bbmaj7   Bb/C


F        Gsus2  Am      Bb

Dm7      Am/E   Bbmaj7  C


There was a beauty living on the edge of town
And she always put the top up and the hammer down
And she taught me everything I'll ever know
About the mystery and the muscle of love 

The stars would glimmer and the moon would glow
I'm in the back seat with my Julie like a Romeo
And the signs along the highway all said, "Caution! Kids At Play!" 
Those were the rights of spring and we did everything
There was salvation every night
We got our dreams reborn and our upholstery torn
But everything we tried was right 

She used her body just like a bandage, she used my body just like a wound
I'll probably never know where she disappeared
But I can see her rising up out of the back seat now
Just like an angel rising up from a tomb 

And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are...

She used her body just like a bandage, she used my body just like a wound
I'll probably never know where she disappeared
But I can see her rising up out of the back seat now
