# Date: 17 Jul 92 05:04:57 GMT Here's a rather famous Springsteen song. I like this one because it can be played at many different tempos. I especially like the acoustic version on the Live album. Enjoy. The words may not all be completely correct and I don't put the key changes over the exact syllable, so sorry. I know one line isn't transcribed correctly, so if anyone has a clue, even if in another key, let me know!! thanks.
