Chords

[Intro] (x4) G-C-G [Verse]
               C
He?s pulling out for Reno

                G
He hopes a tire don?t blow

        D
Up near Albuquerque

                        G
He?ll fuel and get some coffee

                C
Cline?s Corners truck stop

                  G
A waitress with a wet mop

               D
Telling him to don?t walk

                    G
He tips his hat and don?t talk
[Chorus]
                            C         D C
He knows it?s nothing but a good ride

                            G           C G
No there?s nothing there he can?t slide

                           D          C D
No there?s nothing that he won?t spin

                         G           C G
No there?s nothing to it do it again

                        C        D C
No it?s nothing but the big show

                           G        C G
No there?s nowhere that he won?t go

                   D        C D
No he never has to ask why

                            G   C G  G   C G
He knows it?s nothing but a good ride
[Verse]
                                  C
He says there?s something about a sunrise

          G
Waking up sleepy eyes

                                  D
He says there?s something about a highway

               G
Telling him he can?t stay

                                  C
He says there?s something about a long drive

                    G
That gives him some peace of mind

                              D
And there?s something that he can?t take

                    G
When he?s coming in second place
[Chorus]
                            C         D C
He knows it?s nothing but a good ride

                            G           C G
No there?s nothing there he can?t slide

                           D          C D
No there?s nothing that he won?t spin

                         G           C G 
No there?s nothing to it do it again

                        C        D C 
No it?s nothing but the big show

                           G        C G
No there?s nowhere that he won?t go

                   D       C D
No he never has to ask why

                            G         C G
He knows it?s nothing but a good ride
[Break] C-G-D-G-C-G-D-G [Bridge]
                  C
And when it?s all over

                    G
He?ll move a little slower

                     D
He?ll back up to the trailer

                G
And look toward Oklahoma

                                 C
He?ll pull out right through the middle of town

                        G
And watch the sun start sinking down

                           D
Still just lighting up the road signs

                           G
Getting ready for the next time.
[Chorus]
                            C         D C
He knows it?s nothing but a good ride

                            G           C G
No there?s nothing there he can?t slide

                           D          C D
No there?s nothing that he won?t spin

                         G           C G
No there?s nothing to it do it again

                        C         D C
No it?s nothing but the big show

                           G         C G
No there?s nowhere that he won?t go

                   D        C D
No he never has to ask why

                            G----C G  G----C G  G----C G
He knows it?s nothing but a good ride
