G G
There's a boy with head

Pressed up to the window
C C G G
Of a bus heading out of town

G G
In his breath on the glass

He draws with his finger
C C G G
A A map of the roads they go down

G G
Circles of streetlights

Are the only signal
C C G G
There's people out there in the black

G G
He waves goodbye

To the town he grew up in
C C G G
He knows that he'll never come back

Am Am
The night outside is five below
D7 D7
His heart is pumping blood
Bm Bm
On his lips a perfect smile
C C D7 D7
His eyes begin to flood

G G D D, C C
Tonight's the kind of night
G G D D, C C
Where everything could change
G G D D, C C
Tonight's the kind of night
G G D D, C C
Where everything could change


G G
The rumble strip clack

And the rattling frame
C C G G
Beat out a pulse on his head

G G
The engine hums

A A humble tune
C C G G
A A melody of rubber and lead

G G
Under lamp-light glow

And paradise stars
C C G G
An infinity of dancing white light

G G
He sees that his debt

Is to experience only
C C G G
And not to those who plan out his life

Am Am
The night outside is five below
D7 D7
The moon is in the sky
Bm Bm
His heart is full of perfect joy
C C D7 D7
He whispers his goodbye

G G D D, C C
Tonight's the kind of night
G G D D, C C
Where everything could change
G G D D, C C
Tonight's the kind of night
G G D D, C C
Where everything could change

C C G G D D
And tonight he's not gonna come back home
C C G G D D
Oh tonight he's not gonna come back home
C C G G D D
Oh tonight he's not gonna come back home
D D
Ohhh
D D
Ohhh

G G D D, C C
Tonight's the kind of night
G G D D, C C
Where everything could change
G G D D, C C
Tonight's the kind of night
G G D D, C C
Where everything could change

G G D D, C C
Tonight's the kind of night
G G D D, C C
Where everything could change
G G D D, C C
Tonight's the kind of night
G G D D, C C, G G
Where everything could change

About this song: Tonight's The Kind Of Night

The Tonight's The Kind of Night Songfacts reports that the song is an anthem of escape, although the destination is kept deliberately unspecific. Charlie Fink told The Daily Telegraph: "When I was 18, I drove across the States for three months, playing my guitar at open-mic nights. I love that feeling of being lost for days and just bearing straight on down. It can be hard to transpose that romantic, Springsteen idea to England, because in America you can get in a car and drive into huge stretches of nothing, going nowhere.
