Springsteen Bruce – Lost In The Flood tab

Intro: Em

 E       C                      D                 G             A
The ragamuffin gunner is returnin' home like a hungry runaway
    C                       D
He walks through town all alone
                         G                              A
He must be from the fort he hears the high school girls say
    D                              D/C                     Em            A D
His countryside's burnin' with wolfman fairies dressed in drag for homicide
     C                    D                 G                Bm
The hit and run, plead sanctuary, `neath a holy stone they hide
        C                      D           G                     Bm
They're breakin' beams and crosses with a spastic's reelin' perfection
C                     D                        G                            Bm
Nuns run bald through Vatican halls pregnant, pleadin' immaculate conception
    D               G                        Em                  D
And everybody's wrecked on Main Street from drinking unholy blood
C                        D                         C       Bm      Em
Sticker smiles sweet as gunner breathes deep, his ankles caked in mud
            C           D          Em               C          D          Em
And I said "Hey gunner man that's quicksand, that's quicksand that ain't mud
              C         D     Em                   C            D       A
Have you thrown your senses to the war or did you lose them in the flood?"  Em  Am D
