A       B      E
blinded by the light
        A        B             E
Revved up like a deuce another runner in the night

E                            A                           B               E
Madman drummers bummers and Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat

In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way into his hat
                              A                     B                    E
With a boulder on my shoulder feelin' kinda older I tripped the merry-go-round
                          A                         B                       E
With this very unpleasing sneezing and wheezing the calliope crashed to the ground

    B                       E
the calliope crashed to the ground and she was...


[Chorus]

A       B      E
blinded by the light
        A        B             E
Revved up like a deuce another runner in the night
A       B      E 
Blinded by the light


[Verse]

       B                                          A                     E
Some silicone sister with her manager's mister told me I got what it takes
                  B                                                   A                      E
She said I'll turn you on sonny to something strong if you play that song with the funky break
      B                                                     A                  E
And go-cart Mozart was checkin' out the weather chart to see if it was safe outside
        B                                               A                       E 
And little Early-Pearly came in by her curly-wurly and asked me if I needed a ride

 A                       E  C#m
asked me if I needed a ride and she was...

Blinded by the light she got down but she never got tight,  she's gonna make it thorugh the night
A                 E  A    E C#m
she's gonna make it thorugh the night

E                                A                            B
And some fresh-sown moonstone was messin' with his frozen zone reminding him of romance

    B                       E
the calliope crashed to the ground and she was...


[Chorus]

A       B      E

Blinded by the light

A       B      E
blinded by the light
    A            B             E
cut loose like a deuce another runner in the night
  A     B      E 
Blinded by the light

Scott with a slingshot finally found a tender spot and throws his lover in the sand
