Gm D#    A#
Stole a key
       Gm                      D#
Took a car downtown where the lost boys meet
        D#               Cm                      Gm
Took a car downtown and took what they offered me
    D#     A#
To set me free
           Gm                    D#
I saw the lights go down at the end of the scene
                            Cm                    Gm
Saw the lights go down and standing in front of me

In my scarecrow dreams
When they smash my heart into smithereens
e a bright red rose come bursting the concrete
Be a cartoon heart

D#
Light a fire, a fire, a spark
 F                           D#
Light a fire, a flame in my heart

Chorus:
           D#
We'll run wild
                         Gm
We'll be glowing in the dark

         F
All the boys, all the girls
         D#              A#
All that matters in the world
         F
All the boys, all the girls
         D#            A#
All the madness that occurs
         F
All the highs, all the lows
        D#              A#  D#
As the room a-spinning, goes

Chorus:
D#
We'll run riot
                         Gm
We'll be glowing in the dark

So we'll Soar

D#
Luminous and wired
                         A#
We'll be glowing in the dark
