Born to Be Wild by Steppenwolf – Lyrics with Chords

                    Em 
Get your motor runnin'

Head out on the highway

Lookin' for adventure

In whatever comes our way


 G       A           E 
Yeah, darlin' gonna make it happen
 G         A         E 
Take the world in a love embrace
 G    A          E                G  A         E 
Fire all of the guns at once and explode into space


  Em 
I like smoke and lightnin'

Heavy metal thunder

Wrestlin' with the wind

And the feelin' that I'm under


 G       A           E 
Yeah, darlin' gonna make it happen
 G         A         E 
Take the world in a love embrace
 G    A          E                G  A         E 
Fire all of the guns at once and explode into space


        E 
Like a true nature's child
         G      
We were born, born to be wild
           A            G             Em 
We could climb so high, I never wanna die
 E          D    E  D 
Born to be wild,
 E          D    E  D 
Born to be wild,
