verse 1
G
There's a road, in Oklahoma
F
Straighter than a preacher
C G
Longer than a memory
G
And it goes forever onward
F
Been a good teacher
C G
for a lot of country boys like me
verse 2
G
I push that load, from here to someday
F
I'll push as long as I'm alive
C G
but I don't know how long I'll last
G
'cause it's just a road, it aint no highway
F
I'm blowing by the double five
C G
I know I'm going way too fast
Chourus
G C G
I been down this road just searching for the end
D C G D
It don't go nowhere, it just brings you back again
G G
Leaves you lonely and cold, standin' on the shoulder
D F
But you've come too far to go back home
C G
So you're walking on a nowhere road
verse 3
G
Some folks say, if you keep rollin'
F
And keep it on the yellow line
C G
It'll take you to the big highway
G
But there's a toll to pay, if you're going
F
The keeper of the gate is blind
C G
So you better be prepared to pay
Chorus
