As recorded by George Thorogood & THe Destroyers (From the 1991 Album BOOGIE PEOPLE) [Intro] G [Verse 1]
G
Well I pulled out of Pittsburgh

D                            G
Rolling down the eastern sea border

G
I got my diesel wound up

                               D
And she's running like never before

          C                      D
There's a speed zone ahead on my right

            G            C
But I don't see a cop in sight

    G                        D                    G
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight
[Verse 2]
G
Well my rig's a little low

         D                     G
But that don't mean that she's slow

G
There a flame from her stack

                          D
Blowing smoke as black as coal

     C               D
My hotel's comin' in sight

       G                   C
If you think I'm happy all right

    G                        D                    G
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight
[Verse 3]
G
I've got ten forward gears

      D                 G
And a sweet Georgia overdrive

G
I got the pedal to the metal

                     D
And my eyes are open wide

       C                 D
I just passed a Jimmy in white

          G                     C
I've been passing everything in sight

    G                      D                   G
Six days on the road and I gotta see my baby tonight
[Guitar Solo] G D G C G D G [Verse 3]
G          D                    G
The ICC is checking on down the line

G
I'm a little hung over

                         D
And my log book is way behind

    C                    D
But nothing bothers me tonight

           G                   C
Just I can dodge them scales alright

    G                        D                    G
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight
[Verse 4]
G                                  D                  G
Yeah, it seems like a year since I kissed my baby bye bye

                                                       D
I can have a lot of chicks but I'm not like some other guys

           C                   D
Yes, I can find one to hold me tight

        G                     C
But you know it wouldn't be alright

    G                        D                    G
Six days on the road and I'm gonna make it home tonight
