Bruce Springsteen - Ties That Bind

C
you been hurt and you’re all cried out you say
F C
you walk down the street pushing people outta your way

you packed your bags and all alone you wanna ride
F
you don’t want nothing , don’t need no one by your side
C G
you’re walking tough , baby but you’re walking blind
F
to the ties that bind

C | G | F
the ties that bind
C G F | F G | C
now you can’t break the ties that bind

C
cheap romance , it’s all just a crutch
F C
you don’t want nothing that anybody can touch

you’re so afraid of being somebody’s fool
F
not walking tough , baby not walking cool
C G
you walk cool , but darling , can you walk the line
F
and face the ties that bind

C | G | F
the ties that bind
C G F | F G | C
now you can’t break the ties that bind

G Am F G
oh i , i’d rather feel the hurt inside , yes i would darling
Am F
than know the emptiness your heart must hide
C G
yes i would darling , yes i would darling ,
F G
yes i would baby

( sax solo! )

D
you sit and wonder just who’s gonna stop the rain
G D
who’ll ease the sadness , who’s gonna quiet the pain

it’s a long dark highway and a thin white line
G
connecting baby your heart to mine
D A
we’re running now but darling we will stand in time
G
to face the ties that bind

D | A | G
the ties that bind
D A G
now you can’t break the ties that bind
D A G
you can’t forsake the ties that bind
A D | D G | D
whoa , whoa , oh
