Verse 1:
|
B E
|
Straight out of nowhere
|
B
|
And a little bit out of our minds
|
E
|
We were courting disaster
|
B
|
With one foot over the line
|
E
|
It was one for the show
|
B
|
And two for ol' shorty and me
|
E
|
We were the wild ones
|
D E B
|
We had this town up a tree
|
|
|
Chorus:
|
E
|
We were the wild ones
|
B

The ones they couldn't control
|
E
|
We were survivors
|
D E B
|
Good hearts - body and soul
|
E
|
We were the winners
|
B
|
'Cause we didn't know we could fail
|
E
|
We were the wild ones
|
D E B
|
And we had the world by the tail
|
|
|

She was a lady

When a lady wasn't easy to be
|
E

Hangin' in limbo
|
B

She started hangin' with me
|
E
|
We were the music
|
B
|
'Cause we had a song we could sing
|
E
|
We were the wild ones
|
D E B
|
And we had the world on a string
|
|
|
Chorus.

We were the wild ones
|

And we had the world by the tail
