Em On a long and lonesome highway, east of Omaha Dsus2 You can listen to the engine moanin' out his one long song Asus4 Em You can think about the woman or the girl you knew the night before Em But your thoughts will soon be wandering, the way they always do Dsus2 When you're ridin' sixteen hours and there's nothin' much to do Asus4 Em And you don't feel much like ridin', you just wish the trip was through Dsus2 Here I am Em On the road again Dsus2 There I am Em Up on the stage Dsus2 Here I go Asus4 Playin' star again
C Dsus2 There I go Em Turn the page Em So you walk into this restaurant, strung out from the road Dsus2 And you feel the eyes upon you, as you're shakin' off the cold Asus4 Em You pretend it doesn't bother you, but you just want to explode Em Most times you can't hear them talk, other times you can Dsus2 All the same old clich?s, Is it woman? is it man? Asus4 Em And you always seem outnumbered, you don't dare make a stand Em Make your stand. Dsus2 Here I am Em On the road again Dsus2 There I am Em Up on the stage Dsus2 Here I go
Asus4 Playin' star again C Dsus2 There I go Em Turn the page Em Out there in the spotlight, you're a million miles away Dsus2 Every ounce of energy, you try to give away Asus4 Em As the sweat pours out your body, like the music that you play Em Later in the evening, as you lie awake in bed Dsus4 2 With the echoes of the amplifiers ringin' in your head Asus4 Em You smoke the day's last cigarette, rememberin' what she said
Interlude Dsus2 Em Dsus2 Em Dsus2 Em C Dsus2 Em
Dsus2 Here I am Em On the road again Dsus2 There I am
Em Up on the stage Dsus2 Here I go Asus4 Playin' star again C Dsus2 There I go Em Turn the page Dsus2 Here I am Em On the road again Dsus2 There I am Em Up on the stage Dsus2 Here I go Asus4 Playin' star again C Dsus2 There I go Em Turn the page. C Dsus2 There I go
