Making A Livin Not A Killin chords by Leon Majcen

Key: G

Intro:

G


Verse 1:
G
Checked out the Super 8, walking to the truck
G
With a cup of coffee and a Hot Pocket
G
Topping off the tank, just tryna stay awake
G
I'm talking to her picture in a locket
       C
Said I know I've been gone, you've been all alone
                                   G
But for now, I gotta make the next show
                                   A
I'll try you in the evening, but I know you'll be sleeping
      C
And I don't know when I'll be home

Chorus:
               G
Ain't that the way it goes
G
When you're on the road
               C
Ain't that the way it goes
                     G
When you're making a living on the road
     D
This road goes on forever
        C
And I'm barely holding it together
                  G
That's the way it goes
                                                  G
When you're making a living, not a killing on the road (Woo)


Instrumental Break:
C    G


Verse 2:
G
She never knows where I'm at
G
Small town, no track, truck stops in between
G
It's Pilot or Love's, Buccee's if you're lucky
G
It's a road dog's American Dream
          C
And I'm a little bit stoned, a lotta bit broke
                    G
And always a town behind
    D
She asked how's Oklahoma City
           C
And I said Tulsa's pretty alright


Chorus:
           G
That's the way it goes
G
When you're on the road
               C
Ain't that the way it goes
                     G
When you're making a living on the road
     D
This road goes on forever
        C
And I'm barely holding it together
                  G
That's the way it goes
                                                  G
When you're making a living, not a killing on the road (Woo)


Instrumental Break:

Bridge:
      C
I'm a rambling man, a one-man band
                            G
And my baby ain't here with me
           D
But I'm an old-tune slinger, an old-school singer
    C
And always gonna be


Chorus:
              G
Living on the road
G
'Cause that's the way it goes
               C
Ain't that the way it goes
                     G
When you're making a living on the road
     D
This road goes on forever
        C
And I'm barely holding it together
           G
That's the way it goes
G
That's the way it goes


Post-Chorus:
G
That's the way it goes
G
That's the way it goes
G
That's the way it goes
G
That's the way it goes
G
That's the way it goes
G
That's the way it goes
G
That's the way it goes
G
That's the way it goes
G
That's the way it goes
G
That's the way it goes
