Intro

Verse 1

 I Dwork at the Big Star on GNorth 40D5,

 In that Glittle glass booth, in that Ahighway to Ddreams. G D

Verse 2

 I Dwas not that good of a Gstudent in Dschool,

 But this lGife taught me lessons that Amade me no Dfool.

 Oh my Dmum and dad raised me by Gthat golden Drule,

 In a Gworld that gets ruthless, a Aworld that gets Dcruel.

Chorus

 Fill her D/F♯up, let me check your Goil sir.

 Cash your D/F♯card and let me get your Gchange.

 Just turn D/F♯right and when you see that Gbig church sign,

 Just go Gstraight and Ayou'll be on your Dway. G

 I Dhad me a girl once and Gmy ring she Dwore,

 But her Gfather said she could not Asee me no Dmore.

 Oh I Dknow it'd be different if GI weren't so Dpoor,

 So I'm Gwriting these songs trying to Aopen some Ddoors.
