A
Well my truck�s wound up and it�s ready to roll
D
I got a good buddy workin� for the Highway Patrol
E A
So if I get a ticket or two, It�s gonna be alright
A
But the sheriff and his boys they�re in Estilline
D
Unless they�re out to lunch at the Dairy Queen
E
They�ll be itchin� to turn on those red, white, and blue
A
lights
A
Well just like my daddy I was born a drifter
D
I got a rebel heart and eight - ball shifter
E A
Horns on the hood and forty channel CB
Well some things you never leave home without
D
Like your Bible, log book, and your drivin� route
E A
And your Best Of Dale Watson on CD
Chorus:
E D
Cause I�m a diesel drivin� daddy
A
Don�t you get in my lane
E D
Puttin� the pedal to the medal
A
Bringin� eighteen wheels of pain
D
I�ve been in love
E
Broke some hearts
A D
Settled down long enough to replace the parts
D
Kicked a little
E A
Asphalt along the way
There�s a lonely life livin� on the road
When the only friend you�ve got is the radio
And even he fades in and out every now and then
But maybe someday you�ll find the right one
That'll shift the gears and let ya ride shotgun
Knows how to get that big ole rig to spin
Chorus
A
I�m a panhandlin� manhandlin�
D
Post holin� high rollin� dust bowlin� daddy
E
I ain�t got no blood in my veins
I just got them four lanes
A
Of hard Amarillo highway
Chorus
E D A
Up and down that honky tonkin� highway
They end the song by playing these chords pretty quick, so just use barre chords.
F#, G, G#, A, A
