The Price You Pay

Springsteen Bruce

   G                                       C
1. 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 night, with the price you pay
   
2. Now with their hands held high, they reached out for the open skies
   And in on last breath they built the roads they’d ride to their death
   Driving on through the night, unable to  break away
   From the restless pull, of the price you pay

   G                      C
R: Oh, the price you pay, oh, the price you pay
   G       D           C
   Now you can't walk away, from the price you pay

3. Now they'd come so far, and they'd waited so long
   Just to end up caught in a dream, where  everything goes wrong
   Where the dark of night, holds back the light of the day
   And you've gotta stand and fight, for the price you pay

R: Oh, the price you pay...

4. Little girl down on the strand, with that pretty little baby in your 
   hands
   Do you remember, the story of the promised land
   How he crossed the desert sands, and could not enter the chosen land
   On the banks of the river he stayed, to face the price you pay

5. So let the game start, you better run you little wild heart
   You can run through all the nights, and all the days
   But just across the county line, a stranger passing through put up a 
   sign
   G          D        A7 C
   That counts the men fallen away, to the price you pay,
   G             D                              C
   And girl before the end of the day, I’m gonna tear it down and throw 
   it away
