There has been some debate over whether the progression is D-G-A or D-A-G and
the truth is that it's *both*. Listen closely and follow along...

DI leave fromA softball Gpractice every nighAt
DIt's getting Gdark, but the "AGolden Arches" Glight up the Dway
I turn the Acorner at the Gtraffic lightA
DI count my Gmoney and then AI rehearse what GI'm going to Bmsay
"I'd like an order of Bmfries, a Quarter Pounder with Bmcheese,
I love the light in your Geyes, will you go Aout with me please?"
Dan's Note: Stephen had noted an Em in the Pre-Chorus above, but it ain't
there--the bass that does a descending line which makes it sound like the
guitar is moving too, but Ed stays on Bm the whole time.
DI am in Alove with a GMcDonald's girlA
DShe has a Gsmile of Ainnocence so Gtender and warm
DI am in Alove with a GMcDonald's girlA
DShe is an Gangel in a Apolyester Guniform D G A
("Can I get you some fries with that?")
She doesn't try to impress anyone
She doesn't act real tough like all the other girls that I know
She don't treat me like a simpleton
She's not ashamed to be the only other virgin I know
When my hamburger's cold, I get up ready to go,
She's only fifteen years old, and I'm in love with her soul
(Steve Page Rap Solo)
She's got a gold tooth, you know she's hardcore
She'll show you a good time, then she'll show you the door...BOY!
There she stands behind the register
She's taking orders from the Saddle River Little League
If they knew how much I wanted her
Their home-room teachers would have to send them home for a week
As I head through the door, the movement catches her eye,
My heart begins to soar, she smiles, she waves good-bye, good-bye
Good-bye, good byeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Uno, dos, tres, quatro
Big Mac, Filet-o-Fish, Quarter Pounder, French Fries
Icey Coke, Thick Shakes, Sundaes and Apple Pies
Sing that song of taste (yeah, sing that song of taste, G!)
You can only find at one place: McDonald's!
** BASS **
The recording is muffled so this may not be exact, but it will get you through.
This is just the basics--no grace notes, no precise rhythms--but I will try to
get the spacing right so you know when each note is played.
