Six days on the Road

Intro:
  G                        D                            G
I pulled out of Pittsburgh rolling down that Eastern Seaboard
                                                        D
Got my diesel wound up and she’s a running like never before
          C                      D              G            C
There’s a speed zone ahead but alright; I don’t see a cop in sight
    G                       D                      G
Six days on the road, and I’m gonna make it home tonight

         G                       D                 G
I got me ten forward gears and a sweet Georgia overdrive
                                                  D
I got the pedal to the medal and my eyes are open wide
  C                         D                G                     C
I just passed a Jimmy and a White, I’ve been passing everything in sight
    G                       D                      G
Six days on the road, and I’m gonna make it home tonight

   G                          D                  G
It seems like a month since I kissed my baby bye bye,
                                                  D
I got a lot of woman, but I’m not like some other guys
       C                 D                G                        C
Got my air horns runnin’ clear; You wanna watch the way I shift my gears
    G                       D                      G
Six days on the road, and I’m gonna make it home tonight

Instrumental:
 G          D               G
ICC is checkin’ on down the line,
                                                        D
Honey I’m a little overweight; and my log book is way behind,
        C             D            G                   C
Nothin’ bothers me at night; I can dodge them scales alright
    G                       D                      G
Six days on the road, and I’m gonna make it home tonight

   G                         D                G
My rigs a little old, But it don’t mean she’s slow
                                                               D
There’s a flame from her smoke stack and that smoke’s black as coal
   C                    D             G                       C
My home towns comin’ in sight; If you think I’m happy, you’re right
    G                       D                      G
