Hee hee ... I already had my fun, figuring out my own mistakes (oops!).
Mostly I forgot about minor chords - that's what I get for originally
figuring it out on bass!  But now that I've double-checked with someone who
actually played the song with Bob, this should be correct:

DAMNATION ALLEY
( - Brock - Calvert - House - )
A                                   A5   D
I've got the serum and I'm going to take it
A                                         A5     D
All the way to Boston, oh I've got to get through
A                                         A5   D
The going won't be easy, but I'm going to make it
A
It's the only thing that I'm cut out to do
D
Ride the post-atomic radioactive trash
D
The sky's on fire from that nuclear flash
A                                  A5   D
Diving through the burning hoop of doom in an
A
eight wheeled anti-radiation tomb
C                             B
Thank you Dr. Strangelove for going do-lally and
E                                           D
leaving me the heritage of Damnation Alley, Damnation Alleyway

middle section - violin solo:
Am /  /  /  C  /  Bm G  Am /  /  /  /  /  /  /
G  /  /  /  E  /  C  Bm G  Am /  /  /  /  /  /
C  /  /  /  D  /  /  Bm Am /  /  /  /  /  /  /
C  /  /  /  B  /  G  /  D  /  /  /  /  /  /  /

"radiation wasteland" part:
A  /  /  /  A6 A6 /  /

chord tabs (thanks Kevin Perry!):
A5 (-02255) (or is it -02555?)
A6 (-04220)
