Cadd9 G
Boy, you better learn somethin’ when you keep workin’ out
D
Here in this hot ass gravel on a damn truck all your life

Em D G
Em7 D G

VERSE:
Em7 D G
Spray a little ether in the breather and hope she cranks
Em7 D G
Pour a little Folgers from the thermos and take a drink
Em7 D
Hardpack them Marlboro reds
G
Check the oil and the recap treads
Em7 D
A Little Rock’n’roller on the radio
G
You’re gonna miss your boys but it’s time to go

CHORUS:
Cadd9 G
Put eighteen hours on eighteen wheels
D Em
With little white pills nippin’ at your heels
Cadd9 G D D
Like some outlaw asphalt cowboy in the wind

Cadd9 G
Ridin’ high till you run out
D Em
It’s an uphill battle just gearin’ down
Cadd9 G D D
Try’n’a get somewhere on a road that just don’t end

Cadd9 G D
Racin’ time and losin’ miles you’ll never get back again

Em D G
Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohhh
Em D G
Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohhh

VERSE:
Em D G
Little boy wishin’ he was fishin’ in his dreams
Em7 D
Never got to know you too good
G
Now he says things he don’t mean

Em7 D
Ya couldn’t make a good thing last
G
Always had to go so fast
Em D
But age caught up, slowed you down
G
And the days, they just fly by now

CHORUS:
Cadd9 G
Put eighteen hours on eighteen wheels
D Em
With little white pills nippin’ at your heels
Cadd9 G D D
Like some outlaw asphalt cowboy in the wind

Cadd9 G
Ridin’ high till you run out
D Em
It’s an uphill battle just gearin’ down
Cadd9 G D D
Try’n’a get somewhere on a road that just don’t end

Cadd9 G D
Racin’ time and losin’ miles you’ll never get back again

Em D G
Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohhh

BREAK:
Cadd9 D
Well. this cat in the cradle never got a silver spoon
Em
Now I run the roads just like you
Cadd9
There’s cities between her and me

And a real-life
D
Man, I swear that it feels like

CHORUS:
Cadd9 G
Eighteen hours on eighteen wheels
D Em
With little white pills nippin’ at my heels
Cadd9 G D D
Like some outlaw asphalt cowboy in the wind

Cadd9 G
Ridin’ high till you run out
D Em
It’s an uphill battle just gearin’ down
Cadd9 G D
Try’n’a get somewhere on a road that just don’t en-end

Cadd9 G D
Racin’ time and losin’ miles I’ll never get back again

Em D G
Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohhh
Em D G
Woh oh oh oh oh oh ohhh
