[Verse 1]

F              Bb
They say when you find true love

F              Bb
You better hang on to what you've got

F              Bb
Find a way to make it last

F              Bb
Be sure that girl is yours

F              Bb
Well, my baby lives away 'cross town

F              Bb
Until things change, I'm blacktop bound

[Pre-Chorus]

Bb          C     Dm      Bb     C     D
It makes me feel alive to rev it up and ride

[Chorus]

G                   C    G
I'll be keepin' the road hot

Em         G      C          D
I'm on the move, ain't gonna stop

G                   C    G
Hearts on fire and we're miles apart

Am                     C    G
So I'll be keepin' the road hot

G C G C [Verse 2]

F              Bb
I get up and I work all day

F              Bb
The minutes seem like hours as they tick away

F              Bb
By afternoon the time's so slow

F              Bb
I'm a daydream nighttime Romeo

F              Bb
Then the whistle blows and it's time to rock

F              Bb
I head out for that parking lot

[Pre-Chorus]

Bb      C     Dm      Bb     C     D
Car is on my side, I rev it up and ride

[Chorus]

G                   C    G
I'll be keepin' the road hot

Em         G      C          D
I'm on the move, ain't gonna stop

G                   C    G
Hearts on fire and we're miles apart

Am                     C    G
So I'll be keepin' the road hot

[Bridge]

Dm           C
Mmm, that highway sound

Am                    Bb
Thinking of her as the wheels go 'round

Bb                C     Am         D
It's got me hypnotized every time I ride

[Chorus 2]

G                   C    G
I'll be keepin' the road hot

Em         G      C          D
I'm on the move, ain't gonna stop

G                        C    G
Wheels are burning that old black-top

Am                     C    G
Yeah I'll be keepin' the road hot
