Mama [Dm]always said I was born [F]on the wild side [C] [G]
One foot [Dm]in the flames and

Can't say [Dm]I never saw it coming
I [F]could see the warning signs [C] [G]
Mama [Dm]always said I was born [F]on the wild side [C] [G]
I guess [Bb]mama was right
'Cause when the clock [C]strikes midnight
CHORUS:
Gonna ride the lightning [Dm]
Feel the thunder [F]
Till the darkness [C] pulls me under [G]
Gonna fly [Dm]on,
Wings of fire [F]
Pray the good lord [C] leads me higher [G]
Singing oh [Dm],
when they call [F]me home [C] [G]
Singing, oh [Dm],
when they call [F]me home [C] [G]

There's a man [Dm]in a black
coat standing [F]at a crossroads [C] [G]
With a pad [Dm]in his handsand
and [F]a long list of lost souls [C] [G]
They say [Dm]he flips a coin [F]
forged out of fools gold [C] [G]
There's a man [Dm]in a black
coat standing [F]at a crossroads [C] [G]
I hope [Bb]he lets me pass by
And I [C]close my eyes

Gonna ride the lightning [Dm]
Feel the thunder [F]
Till the darkness [C] pulls me under [G]
Gonna fly [Dm]on,
Wings of fire [F]
Pray the good lord [C] leads me higher [G]
Singing oh [Dm],
when they call [F]me home [C] [G]
Singing, oh [Dm],
when they call [F]me home [C] [G]
