D Go on down the boulevard
G May god be the first one in the car
A May he be the last one out of ours
G As we come down wishing this city would start
D Making use of these open arms
G May god be the first one the car
A May he be the last one out of

A May he be the last one out of
G ours
B The last one out of ours
G The last one out of ours
A May god be the last one to get out
