Strum
D-DU-UDU
It's  after midnight in the city  of broken dreams
Down  in the alley, Galileo  meets his pack  of thieves
Over  the river by the old hotel
 There's a big  car coming like a bat out of Hell
It's  the dangerous stranger in his ghostly limou---sine.
You  get the feeling that he's running  in an endless race
Driving  through the city like a razor across  its face
Stops  on the corner in a flash of flame
  He calls  to me ('Hey boy, what's your name?)
He's  the stranger with a danger if you ever  get to play  his game.
I  want to go for a ride
 To see  what lies on the other  side
 (D-EEE, D-EEE, D-EEE)
 I want to go for a ride tonight, tonight.
I  climb right in, like a fool  I say  I'll go
I  listen to the messages comin'  through his radi----o
Is  that my name on channel 9? They say
  ('You're going  away for a long long time')
With  the dangerous stranger from a station  on the other side.
I  want to go for a ride
 To see  what lies on the other  side
 (D-EEE, D-EEE, D-EEE)
 I want to go for a ride tonight, tonight.
The  night is black and the stars  no longer burn
The  radio says that we're past  the point of no  return
I  scream at the driver but he says
 ('No way, you shouldn't  have come if you didn't want to stay')
He's  the dangerous stranger on a highway  to the end  of time
He's  the dangerous stranger on a highway  to the end  of time.
 Ending guitar solo is over a chord progression of:
