What is the name of the song sung by Bruce Springstein in the background of the MSNBC tribute to Tim Russert?

Question

Does anyone know? They've been playing it all weekend & some of the lyrics I've heard are about "giving me your peace, your love, etc. It's so low I really can't make it out but it seems like a sad song & someone picked it out specially as Bruce was his favorite rocker. Thanks

Answer 1

Thunder Road

Answer 2

thunder road bruce springsteen and the e street band

Answer 3

Actually that's a different song.  The one with those lyrics are from is called 'High Hopes'

Here are some of the lyrics, with complete link of lyrics afterwards.

"Give me help, give me strength

Give a soul a night of fearless sleep

Give me love, give me peace

Don’t you know these days you pay for everything

Got high hopes"
