Standard (EADGBE)

acoustic bass:

Verse 1

The wheels of my old car

Are turnin' burnin'

Up the highway

Tonight that girl of mine

Will be yearnin' or not learnin'

To see things my way

She hurt me for the very last time

I'm not hangin' around

I'll show her I can leave her behind

I'm gettin' out of town (gettin' out of town)

I won't back down (I won't back down)

I won't back down (I won't back down)

Chorus

[2: The] Last exit to Brooklyn

[2: The] Last chance to turn around

[2: The] Last exit to Brooklyn

Gonna keep these wheels of mine

Coverin' ground

Verse 2 [w/intro riff]:

Last night I caught that girl

Lyin' tryin'

To deceive me

And now all of these tears

She's cryin' I'm not buyin'

You better believe me

She swore that she was mine alone

Our love would never die

I'm leavin' now for parts unknown

I saw her with that guy (saw her with that guy)

That's the reason why (that's the reason why)

I'll be passin' by (I'll be passin' by)

[repeat chorus]

Coda [repeat to fade]:

[1: On] The last exit to Brooklyn

The last chance to turn around
