[Intro:]
Em
[Verse]
Em
On a long and lonely highway east of omaha
D
You can listen to the engine, moanin out as one long song
A Em
You can think about the woman, or the girl you knew the night before
Em
And your thoughts will soon be wandering the way they always do
D
When you're riding sixteen hours and there's nothing much to do
A Em
You don't feel much like travelin', you just wish the trip was through
[Refrain:]
D Em
But here I am, on the road again
D Em
Here I am, up on the stage
D A
Here I go, playing the star again
C Dadd11 Em
There I go, turn the page
[Verse]
Em
You walk into a restaraunt, strung out from the road
D
And you feel the eyes upon you, as you're shaking off the cold
A Em
You pretend it doesn't bother you, but you just want to explode
Em
Sometimes you can here 'em talk, other times you can't
D
All the same 'old cliches: is that a woman or a man?
A Em
And you always seem outnumbered, you dare not make a stand
[Refrain]
Em
Out there in the spotlight, your a million miles away
D
Every ounce of energy, you try to give away
A Em
And the sweat pours from your body, like the music that you play
Em
Later in the evening, as you lie awake in bed
D
Echos of the amplifiers, ringin' in your head
A Em
As you smoke the days last cigarette, remembering what she said
[Refrain] X2
