Otis Gibbs - Get Me Out Of Detroit

Capo 2 or 3

D                        Em
I took a trip to Detroit city
                       D
Was a blur I'd soon forget
                               Em
Got strip searched in sight of town Oh
                      D
Rudest cops I've ever met

D                             Em
They couldn't find anything on me
                        D
I'm not one to mess around
                            Em
They thanked me when it was over
A7                       G
Said stay out of Detroit town

G                           A7
Blue lights are spinnin and turning round
                           G
As the wheels flew off the ground
                            A7
Feel the beat of your heart slowing down

     D                Em
Motorcity take me far away
G                                     D
Yeah the wheels flew off in dull town USA
     D                     Em
Motorcity felt so far from home
G                                                 D
Yeah Motown and Chevy's the only good you've ever known


I spent three days in my hotel room
Across the street from Coeval Hall ?????
Was as bored as I've ever been
Sat there staring at the wall

I saw a man said he knew me
Said he saw me playing out
I said I'll give you twenty dollars
To get me out of Detroit town

But the capital's so renowned
Night's ringing to the sound
All the plant's are closing down

Motorcity take me far away
Yeah the wheels flew off in dull town USA
Motorcity felt so far from home
Yeah Motown and Chevy's the only good you've ever known

solo

Out of cash and out of style
Nothing changes but the miles
Try to take it all with a smile

Motorcity take me far away
Yeah the wheels flew off in dull town USA
Motorcity felt so far from home
Yeah Motown and Chevy's the only good you've ever known
D                           A7                    G
Yeah Motown and Chevy's the only good you've ever known
