Mm------

    D5            D5
It's carbon and monoxide

   G5     F#5    F5 E5
The ole Detroit perfume

  D5           D5
It hangs on the highways

      G5
In the morning

      A5               D5   
And it lays you down by noon

       A5
Oh Papa Hobo 

               G5             G5
You can see that I'm dressed like a schoolboy

     C5          A5
But I feel like a clown

      G5        E5       C5
It's a natural reaction I learned

             B5   A5  G5  B5 AmG5   A5 GA5 GA5 GA5 
In this basketball town


C5         
Sweep up

                     F5            
I been sweeping up the tips I've made

     C5  DmC5           
I'm living on Gatorade

           G5      G5   
Planning my getaway

C5               
Detroit, Detroit

              F5            
Got a hell of a hockey team

          E5  DmC5
Got a left-handed way

  E5     A5 A5           
Of making a man sign up on that

D5               G5       G5    
Automotive dream , oh yeah,  oh yeah

C5  C#5  D5     G5
Oh, Papa Papa Hobo

                  F5      Bb5 A5 Ab5
Could you slip me a ride?

G5                    D5
 Well, it's just after breakfast 


         G5  F5 
I'm in the road

G5     C5        F5    
And the weatherman lied, 

D5 Bb5  A5 Bb5  A5 GmF5 
Oo-------, Ah-----, Oo-------
