Linda Let Me Be The One Chords

(ver. 1)
Bruce Springsteen
[Intro]
 
G Em Am D
G Em Am D
 
[Verse 1]
G                        C                D                G
Her midnight boys are outside, scr*ping tears up off the street.
           Em                 Am           D           G
Standing guard beneath the window, where only Linda sleeps.
      Em                   C                    D         G
The leader is a kid named Eddy, walkin like an angel in defeat.
  Em                      Am            D
He trashes her old man's car, slashes Linda's name in the seat,
 
and he calls out
 
[Chorus]
  G                     C              D
Linda let me be the one.  Linda let me be the one.
G                       C              D
Linda let me be the one.  Linda let me be the one.
 
[Verse 2]
G                          C       D         G
In an old room full of contenders,  Eddy spars
       Em                       Am     D               G
'Til he drops to his bed and surrenders, draped in the scarves
          Em                  C           D                   G
That he stole from Linda's bedroom, the night he laid at her feet.
             Em                 Am                     D
While the midnight boys were stranded, down on Cason street.
 
and he calls out
 
[Chorus]
  G                     C              D
Linda let me be the one.  Linda let me be the one.
  G                     C              D
Linda let me be the one.  Linda let me be the one.
 
[Verse 3]
          G             C     D                    G
In the basement of St Mary's, Eddy hides from the rain.
Em                   Am                  D              G
In with the stolen sisters, until the streets are dry again.
 Em                    C
Talkin fast cars and spare parts
D                 G
Empty homes and broken hearts.
  Em                  Am                 D
Distant worlds and strange girls, and kneeling with Linda in the dark.
 
[Chorus]
  G                     C              D
Linda let me be the one.  Linda let me be the one.
G                             C            D
Linda let me be the one no no noooo oh ho whoa whoa whoa whoa
