INTRO: E B A A C#m B -- 3x's THEN E A B
////// / / /// / /


VERSE:
E B A NOTE 1: THIS PART IS PLAYED LIKE THE
Lights out tonight INTRO. SAME BEAT.
C#m B
Trouble in the heartland
E B A
Got a head-on collision
C#m B
Smashin' in my guts, man
E
I'm caught in a cross fire
A B E
That I don't understand
A B
But there's one thing I know for sure girl

VERSE:
E B A
I don't give a damn
C#m B
For the same old played out scenes
E B A
I don't give a damn
C#m B
For just the in betweens
E A
Honey, I want the heart, I want the soul
B E
I want control right now
A B
You better listen to me baby

BREAK:
A
Talk about a dream
Try to make it real
B
You wake up in the night
With a fear so real
A
Spend your life waiting
B
For a moment that just don't come
A B
Well, don't waste your time waiting


CHORUS:
E B A C#m B
Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
E
Let the broken hearts stand
B A C#m B
As the price you've gotta pay
E
We'll keep pushin' till it's understood
A B E A B
And these badlands start treating us good

VERSE:
Workin' in the fields
Till you get your back burned
Workin' `neath the wheel
Till you get your facts learned
Baby I got my facts
Learned real good right now
You better get it straight darling
Poor man wanna be rich,
Rich man wanna be king
And a king ain't satisfied
Till he rules everything
I wanna go out tonight,
I wanna find out what I got

BREAK:
Well I believe in the love that you gave me
I believe in the faith that could save me
I believe in the hope
and I pray that some day
It may raise me above these

CHORUS:
Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand
As the price you've gotta pay
We'll keep pushin' till it's understood
And these badlands start treating us good

INTERLUDE:
E A B
Mmmmmmmm, Mmmmm, Mmmmmm -- 4x's
E
For the ones who had a notion,
A B
A notion deep inside
E
That it ain't no sin
A B
To be glad you're alive
E
I wanna find one face
A B
That ain't looking through me
E
I wanna find one place,
A B E
I wanna spit in the face of these badlands

CHORUS:
Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand
As the price you've gotta pay
We'll keep pushin' till it's understood
And these badlands start treating us good
