Intro: D-Bm-F#m-G-D-Bm-F#m-G
[D]Yea, the whole town came out to watch, the [Bm]day the paved the parking lot
[F#m]Somebody hung a ribbon up, and then they c[G]ut it down
And that big wh[D]ite rose upon that sign, put i[Bm]nnocence in all our lives
[F#m]We could see its neon light from h[G]alf a mile out
Gas was .[D]50 cents a gallon, they'd [Bm]put it in for you
they'd b[F#m]ump your tires and check your oil, and w[G]ash your windows too
And we'd sh[D]ine those cars bright as bright, we'd [Bm]go park underneath that light
S[F#m]tare out at the prairie sky, there was no[G]thing else to do
Chorus
Now there's [Bm]plywood for glass, where the wi[F#m]ndows all got smashed
And there's j[G]ust a chunk a'concrete, where those o[A]ld pumps used to stand
There's a co[Bm]uple a' cars half outta the ground
And that o[F#m]ld sign still spins 'round 'n 'round
I gu[G]ess the White Rose fillin' station's just [A]a memory [Bm]now
And the gi[D]rls would spend a couple of bucks
Just to m[Bm]eet the boys workin' at the pumps
And we'd [F#m]pull up and fall in love and they've a[G]ll moved away
St[D]rangers used to stop and ask, h[Bm]ow far they've driven off the map
And t[F#m]hen they built that overpass and now they s[G]tay out on the highway
Chorus
'Cause there's p[Bm]lywood for glass, where the w[F#m]indows all got smashed
And there's j[G]ust a chunk a'concrete, where those o[A]ld pumps used to stand
There's a co[Bm]uple a' cars half outta the ground
And that [F#m]old sign still spins 'round 'n 'round
I gu[G]ess the White Rose fillin' station's just [A]a memory [Bm]now
And that n[G]eon sign was the heart and soul of this ol' one h[D]orse town
And it's l[A]ike it lost its will to live, the day they s[G]hut it down
Chorus
And now there's p[Bm]lywood for glass, where the w[F#m]indows all got smashed
