G                         Dm7                           C 
In Candy's room there are pictures of her heroes on the wall 
          Dm7                    C         F    C      G 
To get to Candy's room you gotta walk the darkness of Candy's hall 
                                       Dm7                        C 
Strangers from the city call my baby's number and they bring her toys 
             Dm7                 C          F    C          G 
When I come knocking she smiles pretty she knows I wanna be Candy's boy 

           C                            F 
There's a sadness hidden in that pretty face 
                  G                              F 
A sadness all her own from which no man can keep Candy safe 
    C          Dm7                   F 
We kiss and my heart's pumpin' to my brain 
                       C                 G 
The blood rushes in my veins fire rushes towards the sky 
              Dm                    F 
We go driving driving deep into the night 
      F                        C                G 
I go driving deep into the light in Candy's eyes 

                              C                    F        G 
She says baby if you wanna be wild you got a lot to learn, close your eyes 
                            C        F 
Let them melt let them fire let them burn 
              G                   Dm                  F 
`Cause in the darkness there'll be hidden worlds that shine 
F                      C                G 
When I hold Candy close she makes these hidden worlds mine 

C                         G 
She has fancy clothes and diamond rings 
C                           G            Dm                   F 
She has men who'll give her anything she wants but they don't see 
     C                 G   Dm                F 
That what she wants is me, oh and I want her so 
     F             C        G 
I'll never let her go no no no 
                   Dm   F 
She knows that I'd give all that I got to live 
                C                  G              Bm | Am | 
All that I want all that I live to make Candy mine 
     G  C 
Tonight
