[A]
[B] [Bm]
[B]
I think I had a good job and I got well paid.
[A] I blew [E] it [E] all at [F#m] the penny [E] I gave.
[B] A hundred dollars on a Cupid doll.
No credit check is gonna [E] make me crawl.
[B]
[G] Get on the speedway to the promised [F#m]
[E] land.
Every woman, child and man [G] is a candlelight and a great big [A] diamond ring.
Don't you know you're [Bm] riding with [B] the king?
[E] [A] [B]
It's all a mission of mercy, a new frontier.
It's gonna take us all [E] out of here.
[B]
Up through that mansion over the hill [Bm]
[B] where you can get your first [E] stripping bill.
Get on [B] the
[Bm] [G] speedway to the promised land.

[A] [D] He don't have a shiny green [Bm] fan in his [B] eyes.
[Bm] [D] You can see it in his face, he's proving [B] him right.
[Bm] [G]
Everybody's getting their [A] angel wings.
Don't you know we're riding [Bm] with the king?
I stepped out of Mississippi when I was [E] ten years old.
With a suit [A] cut sharp as a [G] razor and [Bm] a heart made [B] of gold.
I had a guitar hanging [Bm] just about waist high.
And I'm gonna play this thing.
