Nowhere Road chords by Steve Earle

Chords with lyrics

verse 1

G+G
There's a road, in Oklahoma
FF
Straighter than a preacher
C majorC       G+G
Longer than a memory
G+G
And it goes forever onward
FF
Been a good teacher
C majorC             G+G
for a lot of country boys like me

verse 2

G+G
I push that load, from here to someday
FF
I'll push as long as I'm alive
C majorC             G+G
but I don't know how long I'll last
G+G
'cause it's just a road, it aint no highway
FF
I'm blowing by the double five
C majorC          G+G
I know I'm going way too fast

Chourus
G+G     C majorC        G+G
I been down this road just searching for the end
D MajorD     C majorC         G+G        D MajorD
It don't go nowhere, it just brings you back again
G+G           G+G
Leaves you lonely and cold, standin' on the shoulder
D MajorD             FF
But you've come too far to go back home
C majorC           G+G
So you're walking on a nowhere road

verse 3
G+G
Some folks say, if you keep rollin'
FF
And keep it on the yellow line
C majorC             G+G
It'll take you to the big highway
G+G
But there's a toll to pay, if you're going
FF
The keeper of the gate is blind
C majorC             G+G
So you better be prepared to pay

Chorus
