Intro
[A] [E7] [D] [A]
Verse 1
I took you [A]home from a party and we kissed in fun
A [E7]few stolen kisses and [A]no harm was done
Instead of [D]stopping when we could we [A]went right on
Till [A]suddenly we found the brakes were gone.
Riff

Verse 2
[A]You belong to someone else, and I do too
[E7]It's just as crazy bein' [A]here with you
As a [D]bad motorcycle with the [A]devil in the seat
Doing ninety miles an hour down a [D]dead end [A]street
Verse 3
I [A]didn't want to want you, but now I have no choice
It's too [E7]late to listen to the [A]warning voice
All I [D]hear is thunder as our [A]two hearts beat
Doing ninety miles an hour down a [D]dead end [A]street
Riff
[A](Ah hah) (Ah hah) (Ah hah)
Bridge
[D]You're not free to belong to me
And you [A]know I can never be your own
Your [D]lips on mine are like sweet, sweet wine
But we're [A]heading for a wall of [E7]stone.
Verse 4
Warning [A]signs are flashing by us, but we pay no heed
'Stead of [E7]slowing down the pace, we keep [A]pickin' up the speed
[D]Disaster's getting closer ev'ry [A]time we meet
Doing ninety miles an hour down a [D]dead end [A]street
