D Em7
[Verse 1]
D Em7 She's looking out the window dreaming on fading lights D Her man is on the job again a long one this time for seven nights Em7 He's loaded up and ready, kicked his tyres and wheeled off to the west D And she's already feeling, lonely
[Chorus]
Em7 And the pain runs down her cheek and on her dressing gown D She gives all the love she can, she doesn't plan to slow her truckie down Em7 And she battles with her babies and lately been thinking about her life D Is there anything in store is there more for a truckies wife?
[Instrumental]
Em7 D
[Verse 2]
Em7 And its raining down in Willow-tree you wouldn't hear a diesel truck tonight D Full of murra and di tucker and a cuppa and starting to feel alright Em7 While she sleeps off another day of her underpaid full time job D Schooling and feeding and dressing and loving her little mob
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
Em7 And the motors running hot at his feet and he's thinking about his boys D He's more like an uncle, comes home with ice creams and toys Em7 But at least he's got a job and it seems like he's in control D Em7 D But he'd rather be at home, with his woman
[Chorus]
Em7 And the pain runs down her cheek and on her dressing gown D She gives all the love she can she doesn't plan to slow her truckie down Em7 And she battles with her babies and lately been thinking about her life D Em7 D Is there anything in store, is there more for a truckies wife? Em7 Is there anything in store, is there more for a truckies wife?
