Intro:
G C G C
G C G
Got a dusty neck and a bent back load
D G
Feel the heat rise up off a red dog road
G C G
Up ahead's just more the road not showing
D G
That's a hundred miles that I'm going
G C G
It's a long way up and a long way back
D G
Ain't no short cut and no side track
G C G
And there ain’t one sign of a shade tree growing
D G
That's a hundred miles that I'm going
D G
That's a hundred miles to get back to you
D G
And a hundred years and maybe two
G C G
Seen the road stretched out from the old home place
D G
Seen glad tears standing on Grandma’s face
G C G
Gonna get some love and a big hello-ing
D G
That's a hundred miles that I'm going

Feel the heat rise up off a red dog road

Up ahead's just more the road not showing

That's a hundred miles that I'm going
D G D G
That's a hundred miles that I'm going
