TheBmday they paved the parking lot

Some-F#mbody put a ribbon up

AndGthen they cut it down

And thatDbig White Rose up on that sign

Was theBminnocence in all our lives

AndF#myou could see it’s neon lights

FromGhalf a mile out

Gas wasDfifty cents a gallon

And they’dBmput it in for you

And they’dF#mpump your tires and check your oil

AndGwash your windows too

G

And we’dDshine those cars as bright as bright

And we’dBmgo park underneath that light

AndF#mstare out at the prairie sky

There wasGnothing else to do

G

CHORUS:

But now there’sBmplywood for glass

Where theF#mwindows all got smashed

And there’sGjust a chunk of concrete

Where thoseAold pumps used to stand

There’s aBmcouple of cars half out of the ground

And thatF#moil sign still spins round and round

ButGI guess the White Rose filling station’s just a

Just toBmmeet the boys working at the pumps

AndF#mthey’d grow up and fall in love
