With the radio on


[Verse]
                               G#  G#  D#
I'm in love with Massachusetts
                                    G#  G#  D#

Got the radio on

It helps me from being alone late at night

[Verse]
                                   G#  G#  D#
Said welcome to the spirit of 1956
                                   G#  G#  D#
Patient in the bushes next to '57
                                                  G#  G#  D#
The highway is your girlfriend as you go by quick
                               G#  G#  D#
Suburban trees, suburban speed

And it smells like heaven(thunder)

And I say roadrunner once
                  G#  G#  \
Roadrunner twice
                                                       G#  G#  D#
I'm in love with rock & roll and I'll be out all night
