Words and music by Queen (Brian)




The intro and the introductory verse are all in D(5)

So I'll start with the first chorus:

(D with some C-shapes)
And you're rushing headlong you've got a new goal, and you're rushing headlong
                                     G   D
out of control, and you think you're so strong, but there ain't no stoppin', no
        C(5)                       G(5)    D
there's nothing you can do about it , yeah!

Chorus:
D
Headlong down the highway, and you're rushing headlong out of control and you
             G   D                G(5)                      G     D
