The screen door slams, Mary's dress sways Like a vision she dances across the porch as the radio plays Roy Orbison's singing for the lonely Hey, that's me and I want you only Don't turn me home again I just can't face myself alone again Don't run back inside, darling You know just what I'm here for So you're scared and you're thinking That maybe we ain't that young anymore Show a little faith, there's magic in the night You ain't a beauty, but hey, you're alright Oh, and that's alright with me You can hide 'neath your covers and study your pain Make crosses from your lovers, throw roses in the rain Waste your summer praying in vain For a savior to rise from these streets Well now, I'm no hero, that's understood All the redemption I can offer, girl, is beneath this dirty hood With a chance to make it good somehow Hey, what else can we do now? Except roll down the window And let the wind blow back your hair Well, the night's busting open These two lanes will take us anywhere We got one last chance to make it real To trade in these wings on some wheels Climb in back, heaven's waiting down on the tracks Oh, come take my hand We're riding out tonight to case the promised land Oh, Thunder Road, oh, Thunder Road Oh, Thunder Road Lying out there like a killer in the sun Hey, I know it's late, we can make it if we run Oh, Thunder Road, sit tight Take hold, Thunder Road Well, I got this guitar and I've learned how to make it talk And my car's out back if you're ready to take that long walk From your front porch to my front seat The door's open but the ride ain't free And I know you're lonely for words that I ain't spoken Tonight we'll be free, all the promises will be broken There were ghosts in the eyes of all the boys you sent away They haunt this dusty beach road In the skeleton frames of burned out Chevrolets They scream your name at night in the street Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet And in the lonely cool before dawn You hear their engines roaring on When you get to the porch they're gone on the wind So Mary, climb in It's a town full of losers I'm pulling out of here to win

@michaelarrom94Ай бұрын
Hi Scott, Thank you for your comment! That's also one of my favorites. I have an older audio-only version of the song on my KZbin channel. Wishing you a wonderful New Year!
@scottgoldstein3558Ай бұрын
@michaelarrom94 is it fair to assume that the sharps are left and flats are right from the white keys? A flat ½ step down to the right side of A and A sharp is ½ step up to the left of A? I understand that the white keys also function as sharps and flats.
@michaelarrom9427 күн бұрын
@@scottgoldstein3558 Hey Scott, Happy New Year to you! Good question. Sharps move up by consecutive keys to the right. Flats move down by consecutive keys to the left. Both black keys and white keys can theoretically be sharp or flat notes. For example, B# is technically the same pitch as written "C". Whichever ones we use depend on the key signature. Hope this answers your question.

Hi Andrew, I'm sorry, I don't have a copy that I'm able to share. I'm going to let Steve know that people are looking for the sheet music. Check back on Steve's website in a few weeks to see if it becomes available. Wishing you a great New Year!

@michaelarrom945 ай бұрын
Hi Paul, thanks for your comment! The boring answer is that I've done an untold number of tedious classical exercises. I perform this song as a series of short patterns. I'm sorry that I don't have sheet music for this song. If your father enjoys Backstreets, I did create notes for that song. You can look up my video here and find the link back to my website for my free music notes.
