(Main Riff) (Main Riff)
[Verse 1]
(Main Riff)
Down on the boulevard they take it hard
(Main Riff)
They look at life with such disregard
E F#m
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
A (Riff #2) D
It's o - kay--
(Main Riff) (Main Riff)
[Verse 2]
(Main Riff)
The kid's in shock up and down the block
(Main Riff)
The folks are home playing beat the clock
E F#m
Down at the golden cup They set the young ones up
E F#m
Under the neon light Selling day for night
A (Riff #2) D
It's al - right
(Riff #3 on next 4 lines)
G D E
Nobody rides for free
G D E
Nobody gets it like they want it to be
G D E
Nobody hands you any guarantee
G D E
Nobody
(Main Riff) (Main Riff)
Nobody Baby Nobody
[Verse 3]
(Main Riff)
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
A (Riff #2) D
They don't know--
(Riff #3 on next 4 lines)
G D E
Nobody knows you
G D E
Nobody owes you nothin’
G D E
Nobody shows you what they're thinking
G D E
Nobody
(Main Riff)
Hey, hey, baby You got to watch the street, keep your feet And be on guard
(Main Riff)
Take it Easy Baby It's only time on the boulevard
(Main Riff)
It’s a matter of time On the Boulevard
(Main Riff)
On the Boulevard

Down on the boulevard they take it hard
They look at life with such disregard
They say it can't be won
The way the game is run
But if you choose to stay
You end up playing anyway
It's okay--
The kid's in shock up and down the block
The folks are home playing beat the clock
Down at the golden cup
They set the young ones up
Under the neon light
Selling day for night
It's alright--
Nobody rides for free
Nobody gets it like they want it to be
Nobody hands you any guarantee
Nobody
The hearts are hard and the times are tough
Down on the boulevard the night's enough
And time passes slow
Between the store front shadows and the street lights glow
Everybody walks right by like they're safe or something
They don't know--
Nobody knows you
Nobody owes you nothin
Nobody shows you what they're thinking
Nobody baby
Hey, hey, baby
You got to watch the street, keep your feet
And be on guard
Make it pay baby
It's only time on the boulevard

Down on the boulevard they take it hard
They look at life with such disregard
They say it can't be won
The way the game is run
But if you choose to stay
You end up playing anyway
It's okay--
The kid's in shock up and down the block
The folks are home playing beat the clock
Down at the golden cup
They set the young ones up
Under the neon light
Selling day for night
It's alright--
Nobody rides for free
Nobody gets it like they want it to be
Nobody hands you any guarantee
Nobody
The hearts are hard and the times are tough
Down on the boulevard the night's enough
And time passes slow
Between the store front shadows and the street lights glow
Everybody walks right by like they're safe or something
They don't know--
Nobody knows you
Nobody owes you nothin
Nobody shows you what they're thinking
Nobody baby
Hey, hey, baby
You got to watch the street, keep your feet
And be on guard
Make it pay baby
It's only time on the boulevard
