A
I got this big rig rollin' down Highway One,
E G A
Heading South from the Northern Queensland sun.
I got a woman playing on my mind,
F#m
I'm in a mess and there's just no time
D A
to think about things and the way in might of been.
The white line cast fits deadly spell on me,
E G A
I need some strong black coffee and a bight to eat.
Been on the road since late last week,
F#m
I really need a good night sleep,
D A
And maybe I'll begin to understand.
G D
Slippin' under the spell of the Highway,
A
I feel I'm gonna go under,
G D A
I feel like a man who's on the run.
G D
Slippin' under the spell of the Highway,
A
My heart is beating like thunder,
G D A
Slippin' under the spell of Highway One.
A
Been pushing this old rig more than I should,
E G A
I'd give the game away if only I could.
I've got a king sized overdraft,
F#m
And a woman who haunts me from the past,
D A
And I'm beginning to wonder if it's all worthwhile.
Gotta get this load in right on time,
E G A
I can't afford to loose this contract of mine.
I'm praying this old rig will last,
F#m
I'm loosing concentration fast,
D A
And if tomorrow ever comes it won't be too late.
G D
Slippin' under the spell of the Highway,
A
I feel I'm gonna go under,
G D A
I feel like a man who's on the run.
G D
Slippin' under the spell of the Highway,
A
My heart is beating like thunder,
G D A
Slippin' under the spell of Highway One.
[Instrumental]

I feel like a man who's on the run.
G D
Slippin' under the spell of the Highway,
A
My heart is beating like thunder,
G D A
Slippin' under the spell of Highway One.
G D A
Slippin' under the spell of Highway One.
