1. On a long and lonely highway east of Omaha
D
you
can listen to the engine, moanin’ out as one long
song,
A
Em
you
can think about the woman, or the girl you knew the night before.
Em
And your thoughts will soon be
wandering the way they always do,
D
when
you’re riding sixteen hours and there's nothing much to do,
A
- Em
you
don't feel much like travelin', you just wish the
trip was through.

But here I am, on the road again, here I am, up on the stage,

here I go, playing the star again,
there I go, turn the page.

2. You walk into a restaurant, strung out from the road,
D
and
you feel the eyes upon you, as you’re shaking off the cold,
A - Em
you
pretend it doesn't bother you, but you just want to explode.
Em
Sometimes you hear 'em talkin', other times you
can't,
D
all
the same 'ole cliches : “Is that a woman or a man ?”
A
- Em
And you always seem outnumbered, you dare not make a stand.

3. Out there in the spotlight, you’re a million miles away,
D
every
ounce of energy, you try to give away,
A
- Em
and
the sweat pours from your body, like the music that you play.
Em
Later in the evening, as you
lie awake in bed,
D
with
the echos of the amplifiers, ringin’
in your head,
A
- Em
and
you smoke the days last cigarette, remembering what you said.
