Linda Let Me Be The One - Bruce Springsteen
| G | G(2) | C | D | G | G(2) | C | D
G C
The midnight boys are outside
D G
Scraping tears up off the street
Em Am
Standin' guard beneath the window
D G
Where only Linda sleeps
Em C
The leader is a kid named Eddie
D G
Walkin' like an angel in defeat
Em Am
He trashes her old man's car
D
Slashes Linda's name in the seat
And calls out
G G(2)
Linda will you let me be the one
C D
Linda will you let me be the one
G G(2)
Linda will you let me be the one
C D
Linda will you let me be the one
G C D
In a room full of contenders
G Em Am D
Eddie spars till he drops to his bed and surrenders
G
Draped in the scarves
Em C
He stole from Linda's bedroom
D G
The night he layed at her feet
Em Am
When the midnight boys were stranded
D
Down on Cason Street
G G(2)
Linda will you let me be the one
C D
Linda will you let me be the one
G G(2)
Linda will you let me be the one
C D
Linda will you let me be the one
(Sax solo) | E | E | A | B | E | E | A | B | C | D |
(Break) | G | G(2) | C | D | G | G(2) | C | D
G C D
In the basement of St. Mary's
G Em
Eddie hides from the rain
Am D G
In with the stolen sisters 'til the streets are dry again
Em C D
Talkin' fast cars and spare parts
G Em
Empty homes and broken hearts
Am
Distant worlds with strange girls
D
And kneeling with Linda in the dark
G G(2)
Linda will you let me be the one
C D
Linda will you let me be the one
G G(2)
Linda will you let me be the one
C D
Linda will you let me be the one
