[DARREL, spoken]

               Em                         C                                G
When I stepped out into the bright sunlight from the darkness of the movie house,

           Em                    C                  G
I had only two things on my mind: Paul Newman and a ride home

[PONYBOY, sung]

G          Em          C       G
I've never been out of Tulsa before

  Em             C        G
I wonder what it would be like

 G         Em       C       G
I’ve never known anybody to leave

     Em         C              G
Most people get stuck here for life

D                     Am
I used to glorify how Cool Hand Luke was free

C                    G
He wasn't tied to anything

D                     Am
I used to idolize the actors on the screen

C                         G
I looked to Newman like a king

    D                     Am
And now I look at what my brothers do for me

            C                                   G
They're the reason that I’m standing here right now

D                               Am
One thing is certain, I can say without a doubt

      C                                D
Those heroes paved the way so I could finally make it out

F       C      Dm   C              G  Am  G
Darrel, you're the toughest guy I know

Am   C               D       Em
Just took me way too long to see

F     C      Dm   C              G  Am  G
Soda, you're this family's heart and soul

F   C                     F
Can you imagine how proud Mom and Dad would be?
 
[SODAPOP, spoken]

F  C  D  C  G  Am
I could picture hundreds and hundreds of boys living on the wrong side of cities.

F G C D Em
Boys with black eyes who jumped at their own shadows.

Hundreds of boys who maybe watched sunsets,

F C Dm C F
who looked at stars and ached for something better
 
[PONYBOY, sung]

D                              Am
And now I'm thinking 'bout the Dallys of the world

C                               G
Always on the outside looking in

D                              Am
Bruises on their eyes, wearing grease for their disguise

C                                   G
Trying to look tough so they're not beaten down again

 
[PONYBOY & ENSEMBLE]

    D                                Am
And everybody loves to judge us, but nobody lends a hand

         C                                  G
They see grease and dirty clothes and never try to understand

            D
That we all come from different places

       Am
We all start from different lives
 
[PONYBOY]

    C                               D
But when they hear our story, maybe we can change their minds
 
[spoken]

Am                                C
I wondered for a long time how to start.

                                              G
How to start writing about something that was important to me.

              D
And I finally began like this:
 
[PONYBOY & ENSEMBLE]

        G     Em C
This is Tulsa 1967
 
[PONYBOY]

         G         Em                C
And it's time this Greaser’s story’s told

        G                     Em
For the hopeless boy with the reckless grin

        C                     G
For the down-and-outs who can never win

Em              C
On the outside, looking in

D
Looking down, Johnny Cade'll smile again

He was
 
[PONYBOY & ENSEMBLE]

Em            C                G   G/F#
Just too damn good for growing old

Em         C             D
And in his memory I stay gold

N.C.     G F  F C  C G  F
Stay gold

         G F  F C  C G  F
Stay gold

           G F  F C  C G  F
Stay gold. Tulsa 1967 

           G F  F C  C G  F
Stay gold. Just one thing you need to know

           G F  F C  C G  F
Stay gold. Tulsa 1967 

           G F  F C  C G  F               F
Stay gold. Just one thing you need to know

     G
Stay gold
