The Price You Pay - Bruce Springsteen



| G | C G | C G D | Bm | G | C G | C G D | G |



                                       C

You make up your mind, you choose the chance you take

                       G                    D

You ride to where the highway ends and the desert breaks

              G                  C

Out on to an open road you ride until the day

              G           D           C

You learn to sleep at nigth with the price you pay



               G                                          C

Now with their hands held high, they reached out for the open skies

        G                                          D

And in one last breath they built the roads they'd ride to their death

             G                           C

Driving on through the night, unable to break away

          G          D         C

From the restless pull of the price you pay



          G                     C

Oh, the price you pay, oh, the price you pay

               G       D          C

Now you can't walk away from the price you pay



           G                       C

Now they'd come so far and they'd waited so long

                G                        D

Just to end up caught in a dream where everything goes wrong

           G                            C

Where the dark of night holds back the light of day

                  G            D          C

And you've gotta stand and fight for the price you pay



          G                     C

Oh, the price you pay, oh, the price you pay

               G       D          C

Now you can't walk away from the price you pay





(Harp solo) | G | C G | C G D | Bm | G | C G | C G | D | C | C | C | G | G | G | G |



                                                            C

Little girl down on the strand with that pretty little baby in your hands

        G                           D

Do you remember the story of the promised land 

                    G                                    C

How he crossed the desert sands and could not enter the chosen land

                     G             D             C

On the banks of the river he stayed to face the price you pay



            G                                     C

So let the game start, you better run you little wild heart

         G                                      D

You can run through all the nights and all the days

                     G                                        C

But just across the county line, a stranger passing through put up a sign

                     G                   Em         C                     G

That counts the man fallen away to the price you pay, and girl before the end of the day

D                           C           

I'm gonna tear it down and throw it away
