[Verse 1]
G C G/D G C G/D
Long hair and longer stride
Em C G/D Em C G/D
Skateboard affair with the primal tribe
G C G/D G C G/D
And your cut-off painter pants
Em C G/D Em C D
Chargin down the craggy mountains, with our thrift-store friends
[Pre-Chorus]
Em Bm C G Bm Em
And who you find so, so in love with the falling earth
Bm C D G C G/D
Who you wake in the middle of the fallin' night with summer playing coy
[Verse 2]
G C G/D G C G
And In the attics of the city night
G C G/D Em
We talked corso and the M.C. five
C G Em C D Em
And you could dance like, we were all alright
[Chorus 1]
Bm C G Bm Em
Only the wild ones, give you something and never want it back
Bm C D Em
Oh the riot and the rush of the warm night air
Bm C G Bm Em
Only the wild ones, are the ones you can never catch
Bm C D G C G/D G C G/D Em C G/D Em C G/D
Stars are up now, no place to go, but everywhere
[Verse 3]
G C G/D G C G
One I met in the green mountain state
Em C G/D Em C G/D
I dropped out, and he moved away
G C G/D G C G/D
Heard he got some land down south
Em C G/D Em C D
Changed his name to a name the birds could pronounce
[Chorus 2]
Em Bm C G Bm Em
And only the wild ones, give you something and never want it back
Bm C D Em
Oh the riot and the rush of the warm night air
Bm C G Bm Em
Only the wild ones, are the ones you can never catch
Bm C D G C G/D G C G/D Em C G/D
Stars are up now, no place to go, but everywhere
Em C G/D G C G/D G C G/D Em C G/D Em C G/D
(No place to go but everywhere)
[Verse 4]
G C G/D G C G/D
And in the city the mayor said
Em C G/D Em C G/D
Those who dance are all mislead
G C G/D G C G/D
So you packed your things and moved to the other coast
Em C G/D Em C D
Said you gonna be like Charlie Rose
[Chorus 3]
Bm C G Bm Em
Only the wild ones, give you something and never want it back
Bm C D Em
Oh the riot and the rush of the warm night air
Bm C G Bm Em
Only the wild ones, are the ones you can never catch
Bm C D Em
Stars are up now, no place to go, but everywhere
[Interlude]

G C G/D G C G/D
Em C G/D Em C D
[Chorus 4]
Bm C G Bm Em
Only the wild ones, give you something and never want it back
Bm C D Em
Oh the riot and the rush of the warm night air
Bm C G Bm Em
Only the wild ones, are the ones you can never catch
Bm C D G C G/D G
Stars are up now, no place to go, but anywhere
