VERSE:
  G+G            FF
In `46 we moved out here to Beaumont
 C majorC               G+G
Start a little business of our own
 G+G                FF
They built a freeway through in `62
 C majorC                  G+G
Everything we had`s now is lost and gone

  G+G                  FF
I see the men in the distance from my window
 C majorC                 G+G
Faces in the cars look straight ahead
   G+G            FF
They roll on by too loud for comfort
     C majorC            G+G
But too far away to rent a motel bed

CHORUS:
G+G               FF
So, if you`re passing on your way
   C majorC        G+G
From Palm Springs to LA.

    C majorC        D MajorD
Give a wave to good ol` Dave
 C majorC       D MajorD
Say hello to progress
     C majorC     D MajorD        G+G
And good bye to the Moonlight Motor Inn

VERSE:
 G+G            FF
Mother`s sleeping in the back room
C majorC                 G+G
TV show as are the only life she has
   G+G             FF
Her son`s now a captain in the Air Force
       C majorC                  G+G
And he can`t find the time to write his proud ol` dad

   G+G                  FF
Our daughter wants to leave the place at eighteen
     C majorC              G+G
And run away with a jobless Beaumont man
  G+G           FF
To hitch hike out of California
      C majorC             G+G
And make a life in the Rocky Mountain land


CHORUS:
G+G               FF
So, if you`re passing on your way
   C majorC        G+G
From Palm Springs to LA.

 G+G               FF
Can`t make the payments on the mortgage
 C majorC             G+G
Cant turn the red ink into blue

 G+G               FF
Weeds are growing through the gravel
     C majorC                  G+G
And the blacktops cracked and partly washed away
   G+G               FF
Our neon sign points in the wrong direction
   C majorC                G+G
