[Intro] D Am C G D Am C G [Verse 1]
D                      Am
Readin' and writin' on Route 23

     C                    G
It's hard to believe we've made it this far

   D                Am
So come on boys and grab your coats

Detroit's waitin' so get in the car
[Break] D Am C G 2x [Verse 2]
         D                          Am
Well the wind it blows cold but the girls are on fire

     C                         G
They say they're the prettiest things you have seen

    D                 Am
And I ain't a gambler but I'd bet the farm

That Detroit's a gold mine waiting for me
[Instrumental] D Am C G x2 [Verse 3]
    D                    Am
The sidewalks are always jammed in this town

  C                       G
I feel like a dam that's about to cut loose

        D                    Am
And the girls they say, will treat you fine

Beg for your silver 'til you can't refuse
[Break] D Am C G [Verse 4]
        D                      Am
And I'd love to go back to the hills where I was born

                      C         G
Instead of workin' on cars that I can't afford

   D                    Am
My pockets are empty my patience is torn

   C              G
Oh look what's become of me
[Break] D Am C G [Verse 5]
D                   Am
Mama I'm writin' to tell you I'm fine

    C                       G
I'm workin' real hard and I pray every night

   D                   Am
So don't you worry I'm happy and free

C                     G
Detroit's been like a blessing to me
