They say it can't be won The way the game is run
           E                                   F#m
But if you choose to stay   You end up playing anyway

The folks are home playing beat the clock
            E                       F#m
Down at the golden cup They set the young ones up

Under the neon light Selling day for night

The hearts are hard and the times are tough
(Main Riff)
Down on the boulevard the night's enough
E                                F#m
And time passes slow Between the store front shadows and the street lights glow
E                                     F#m
Everybody walks right by like they're safe or something

On the Boulevard
