Got the radio on

Helps me from being lonely late at night

I don't feel so bad now in the car

[Verse]
                                    C#  C#  G#
Said welcome to the spirit of 1956
                                   C#  C#  G#
Patient in the bushes next to '57

The highway is your girlfriend
                    C#  C#  G#
as you go by quick

Suburban trees, suburban speed
                                  C#  C#  G#
And it smells like heaven, I say
                 G#  G#    \
Roadrunner once
                  G#   G#  \
Roadrunner twice

I'm in love with rock & roll
    G#
and I'll be out all night, roadrunner
             C#  C#  G#
That's right

Gonna drive to the Stop 'n' Shop

With the radio on at night
                                    C#  C#  G#
And me in love with modern moonlight
                                    C#  C#  G#
Me in love with modern rock & roll
                                    C#  C#  G#
Modern girls and modern rock & roll

Don't feel so alone, got the radio on

Like the roadrunner
