On a long and lonesome highway,east of Omaha

You can listen to the engine moaning out it's one note song
A A Em
And you think about the woman or the girl the night before
 
Verse 2:
Em Em
But your thoughts will soon be wandering the way they always do
D D
When you're ridin' sixteen hours and there's nothin' much to do
A A Em
And you don't feel much like ridin' you just wish the trip was through
[Refrão] D Em
Here I am on the road again,
D Em
There I am one more stage
D A
Here I go,playin' star again
D Em
There I go turn the page

Well you walk into a restaurant strung out from the road

And you feel the eyes upon you as you're shakin' off the cold
A Em
You pretend it doesn't bother you but you just want to explode
 
Verse4:
Em
Most times you can't hear them talkin',other times you can

All the same old cliches, "Is that a woman or a man?"

and you always seem outnumbered so you don't dare make a stand
 
Chorus

Em
Out there in the spotlight you're a million miles away
D
Every ounce of energy you try to give away
A Em
as the sweat pours from your body like the music that you play

Later in the evening as you lie a wake in bed
D
With the echoes from the amplifiers ringing in your head
A Em
And you smoke the day's last cigarette remembrin' what she said
