[Verse 1]
D A D
I hear the guitars ringin' out babe
G D
Ringin' out down Union Street

I hear the lead singer shoutin' out, girl

I wanna be a slave to the beat

Yeah, tonight I wanna break my chains

Somebody break my heart

Somebody shake my brains

Downtown there's something that I wanna hear

There's a sound, little girl, keeps ringing in my ear

A D
I get off from work and I grab something to eat
G D
I turn the corner and I drive down your street
A D
Little gray houses darling looks like nowhere
G
But hey I know you're hiding in there
A
Come on out for just a little while
Bm
You know that heart of stone, girl
G
Girl it just ain't your style
A
Tonight I wanna feel the beat of the crowd
G
And when I tell you that I love you
A
I wanna have to shout it out loud
Shout it out loud
Shout it out loud
[Chorus]
