Paradise By The Dashboard Light by Meat Loaf




                      Paradise By The Dashboard Light







there are no split chords in the song; when I write F/C, the guitar plays an F chord
and the bass hits a C.  the start has a syncopated rhythm, so you''ll have to listen
to the song to pick that up.
 
 
I. Paradise
Boy:
D                                                       G
I remember every little thing as if it happened only yesterday
C                                   G                  D
Parking by the lake and there was not another car in sight
      D                                        G
And I never had a girl looking any better than you did
F#                                     G                 A       D
And all the kids at school they were wishing they were me that night
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
            Bb         F     C         D
And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
         Bb      F              C       D
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
G/D                        D            A/D       D
And we''re glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
G/D              D            A/D       D
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
G              D      G              F
C''mon! Hold on tight! C''mon! Hold on tight!
 
 
[Chorus]
 
            G        A             D    A    G
Though it''s cold and lonely in the deep dark night
      D       Bm          G   Em    D
I can see paradise by the dashboard light

iii. Praying for the end of time
 
Boy:
           F
I couldn''t take it any longer Lord I was crazed
              C                          F
And then the feeling came upon me like a tidal wave
          C                            G
I started swearing to my god and on my mother''s grave
             F               G      C
That I would love you to the end of time
                     F               G      C
I swore that I would love you to the end of time!
 
G            C               G      C
  So now I''m praying for the end of time
   F        G   C
To hurry up and arrive
      C          Em/B          Am
Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you
        G
I don''t think that I can really survive
           F
I''ll never break my promise or forget my vow
    C                         G
But god only knows what I can do right now
    C               G      C
I''m praying for the end of time
                    Am
It''s all that I can do
C               G      C              F      G         C
Praying for the end of time, so I can end my time with you!
 
Boy:
       F/C     C           G/C  C
It was long ago and it was far away
           F/C     C              G/C  C
And it was so much better than it is today
 
Girl:
(same chords as above)
It never felt so good
It never felt so right
And we were glowing like
A metal on the edge of a knife

We''re gonna go all the way and tonight’s, the night
 
 
Ok, here we go, we got a real pressure cooker
going here, two down, nobody on, no score,
bottom of the ninth, there''s the wind-up and
there it is, a line shot up the middle, look
at him go. This boy can really fly!
He''s rounding first and really turning it on
now, he''s not letting up at all, he''s gonna
try for second; the ball is bobbled out in center,
and here comes the throw, and what a throw!
He''s gonna slide in head first, here he comes, he''s out!
No, wait, safe--safe at second base, this kid really
makes things happen out there.
Batter steps up to the plate, here''s the pitch--
he''s going, and what a jump he''s got, he''s trying
for third, here''s the throw, it''s in the dirt--
safe at third! Holy cow, stolen base!
He''s taking a pretty big lead out there, almost
daring him to try and pick him off. The pitcher
glance over, winds up, and it''s bunted, bunted
down the third base line, the suicide squeeze in on!
Here he comes, squeeze play, it''s gonna be close,
here''s the throw, there''s the play at the plate,
holy cow, I think he''s gonna make it!

Ok, here we go, we got a real pressure cooker
going here, two down, nobody on, no score,
bottom of the ninth, there''s the wind-up and
there it is, a line shot up the middle, look
at him go. This boy can really fly!
He''s rounding first and really turning it on
now, he''s not letting up at all, he''s gonna
try for second; the ball is bobbled out in center,
and here comes the throw, and what a throw!
He''s gonna slide in head first, here he comes, he''s out!
No, wait, safe--safe at second base, this kid really
makes things happen out there.
Batter steps up to the plate, here''s the pitch--
he''s going, and what a jump he''s got, he''s trying
for third, here''s the throw, it''s in the dirt--
safe at third! Holy cow, stolen base!
He''s taking a pretty big lead out there, almost
daring him to try and pick him off. The pitcher
glance over, winds up, and it''s bunted, bunted
down the third base line, the suicide squeeze in on!
Here he comes, squeeze play, it''s gonna be close,
here''s the throw, there''s the play at the plate,
holy cow, I think he''s gonna make it!

Well I remember every little thing
As if it happened only yesterday
Parking by the lake and there was not another car in sight
And I never had a girl
Looking any better than you did
And all the kids at school
They were wishing they were me that night
And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we''re glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
C''mon hold on tight
Oh c''mon hold on tight
Though it''s cold and lonely in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the dashboard light
Ain''t no doubt about it we were doubly blessed
''Cause we were barely seventeen and we were barely dressed
Ain''t no doubt about it
Baby got to go and shout it
Ain''t no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed
''Cause we were barely seventeen and we were barely dressed
Baby don''t you hear my heart
You got it drowning out the radio
I''ve been waiting so long for you to come along and have some fun
Well I gotta let you know
No you''re never gonna regret it
So open up your eyes I got a big surprise
It''ll feel all right
Well I want to make your motor run
And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we''re glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
C''mon hold on tight
Oh c''mon hold on tight
Though it''s cold and lonely in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the dashboard light
Though it''s cold and lonely in the deep dark night
(Deep dark night) paradise by the dashboard light
You got to do what you can
And let mother nature do the rest
Ain''t no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed

Two down, nobody on, no score, bottom of the ninth
There''s the windup, and there it is
A line shot up the middle, look at him go
This boy can really fly
He''s rounding first and really turning it on now
He''s not letting up at all
He''s gonna try for second, the ball is bobbled out in center
And here comes the throw, and what a throw
He''s gonna slide in head first
Here he comes, he''s out
No, wait, safe-safe at second base
This kid really makes things happen out there
Batter steps up to the plate, here''s the pitch-he''s going
And what a jump he''s got, he''s trying for third
Here''s the throw, it''s in the dirt-safe at third
Holy cow, stolen base, he''s taking a pretty big lead out there
Almost daring him to try and pick him off
The pitcher glances over, winds up, and it''s bunted
Bunted down the third base line, the suicide squeeze is on
Here he comes, squeeze play, it''s gonna be close, here''s the throw, here''s the play at the
Holy cow, I think he''s gonna make it
Stop right there
I gotta know right now
Before we go any further
Do you love me?
Will you love me forever?
Do you need me?
Will you never leave me?
Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life?
Will you take me away and will you make me your wife?
Do you love me?

Let me sleep on it

What''s it gonna be, boy?
Come on, I can wait all night
What''s it gonna be, boy?
Yes or no?

Yes or no?
Let me sleep on it

Will you love me forever?
Let me sleep on it
Will you love me forever
Let me sleep on it
Will you love me forever
I couldn''t take it any longer Lord I was crazed
And when the feeling came upon me like a tidal wave
I started swearing to my god and on my mother''s grave
That I would love you to the end of time
I swore, that I would love you to the end of time
So now I''m praying for the end of time
To hurry up and arrive
''Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you
I don''t think that I can really survive
I''ll never break my promise or forget my vow
But god only knows what I can do right now
I''m praying for the end of time
It''s all that I can do (oh oh oh)
Praying for the end of time, so I can end my life with you
It was long ago and it was far away
And it was so much better that it is today
It was long ago and it was far away (it never felt so good, it never felt so right)
And it was so much better that it is today (and we were glowing like, a metal on the edge of a knife)
It was long ago and it was far away (it never felt so good, it never felt so right)
And it was so much better that it is today (and we were glowing like, a metal on the edge of a knife)
It was long ago and it was far away (it never felt so good, it never felt so right)
And it was so much better that it is today (and we were glowing like, a metal on the edge of a knife)
It was long ago and it was far away (it never felt so good, it never felt so right)
And it was so much better that it is today (and we were glowing like, a metal on the edge of a knife)
It was long ago and it was far away (it never felt so good, it never felt so right)
And it was so much better that it is today (and we were glowing like, a metal on the edge of a knife)
It was long ago and it was far away (it never felt so good, it never felt so right)
And it was so much better that it is today (and we were glowing like, a metal on the edge of a knife)
