Meeting Across The River

Bruce Springsteen

Sometimes I stick a capo on the first fret, sounds okay if you don't though.

D
Hey, Eddie, can you lend me a few bucks
                    C
And tonight can you get us a ride
      D
Gotta make it through the tunnel
                                A
Got a meeting with a man on the other side
    G7sus
Hey Eddie, this guy, he's the real thing
          F
So if you want to come along
                                 Em7
You gotta promise you won't say anything
                         A7
`Cause this guy don't dance
                                       D          C
And the word's been passed this is our last chance


We gotta stay cool tonight, Eddie
`Cause man, we got ourselves out on that line
And if we blow this one
They ain't gonna be looking for just me this time

And all we gotta do is hold up our end
Here stuff this in your pocket
It'll look like you're carrying a friend
And remember, just don't smile
Change your shirt, `cause tonight we got style

Well Cherry says she's gonna walk
`Cause she found out I took her radio and hocked it
But Eddie, man, she don't understand
That two grand's practically sitting here in my pocket

And tonight's gonna be everything that I said
And when I walk through that door
I'm just gonna throw that money on the bed
She'll see this time I wasn't just talking
Then I'm gonna go out walking

Hey Eddie, can you catch us a ride?
