Verse 1:
Ab
She arrives in all her splendor,
Ab    Db
Every night at nine o'clock.
Db      Eb
And her chariot is the crosstown bus,
Eb                        Ab
That stops right down the block.
Ab
Then the old piano minstrel,
Ab        Db
Plays her song as she walks in,
Db      Eb
And the queen of the silver dollar,
Eb          Ab
She's home again.

Verse 2:
Ab
Her royal gown is a satin dress,
Ab     Db
That's stained and slightly torn.
Db     Eb
And her sparklin' jewels are rhinestones,
Eb                            Ab
And her shoes are scuffed and worn.
Ab
From the many roads she's traveled,
Ab      Db
And the wondrous sites she's seen.
Db    Eb
And I watch her and I pray,
Eb           Ab
God save the queen.

Verse 3:
The queen of the silver dollar,
Is not as haughty as she seems.
She was once an ordinary girl,
With ordinary dreams.
But I found her and I won her,
And I brought her to this world.
Yes, I'm the man who made a queen,
Of a simple country girl.
