Capo 1

D                A                    G
Four-thirty at a truckstop outside of Gainesville
D        A            G
I walked in to rest a while
D                A      
Then a girl came in
                 G
To grab another tank full
D                A          G
She looked at me and I just smiled
G                          A  
I heard her say she'd been driving all night
        D                                    G
She got to head to the city just to catch a flight
D            A               G
But it don't leave until the afternoon

 
G                     A       D 
She said I've done my time in Texas
G                   A     D
And I've never seen Paris France
Bm                    G
But a postcard from a friend of mine
G                    A     D
Said this might just be my chance
G     A      D
I fly out of Oklahoma
G                  A      D
Do you think you'd like a ride?
Bm                         G      
Or will you walk away from another day
G                     A      D
With your thumb aimed at the sky

 
D             A              G
We spent that morning on the road
D            A            G
Sharing tales and getting high
D                       A             G
Then she said hey mister it's time to go
D              A       G
And I just hate to say goodbye
G               A                                
All them times that I've been burned
D                               G
There's still one lesson that I won't learn
D              A                        G
You don't know what you have until it's gone
 
G                 A       D
I got a three day walk to Texas
G                   A     D
And it's raining in Paris France
Bm                         G
And I'd grab that girl and I'd love her, lord
G         A       D
If I only had the chance
G            A  D
So God smile on Oklahoma
G                     A       D
Because I can't seem to find a ride
Bm                    G
As I walk away from another day
G                   A       D
With my thumb aimed at the sky.
