[Verse 1]
G D E G I’m thankful for my family, I’m thankful for this life, C G Em D My kids have grown up decent, due mostly to the wife. G E C When you’re on the trucks out on the road and away from home so much, G D G This cracklin’ old CB of mine has kept us all in touch.
[Verse 2]
D E G I’m thankful for the freedom and I’m thankful for my friends, C G Em D There’s not too many good ones but the good one’s never bend. G Em C Been all over this old country, every road and every run, G D G And I’m thankful for this life of freedom seeing from this old truck.
[Chorus 1]
C G Black road roll on forever, big wheels keep turning round. A7 D I’m close to God out on the road but I’m just truckin’ round. C G C So don’t ever try to hobble me or I’d wither like a weed. G D G** You know highways are pasture where a traveller has to feed.

[Verse 3]
G D E G Oh, I’m thankful for this sunrise when the eastern sky’s a glow C G Em D A thousand miles from nowhere where the desert breezes blow G Em C And the roaring of the diesel sings its own home coming song G D G And I’m thankful for the wealth and you that waits for me back home.
[Verse 4]
D E G This big old iron horse of mine has muscles made of steel C G Em D There’s diesel in those veins and I know every sound and feel G Em C I’ve been with trucks just all my life, a car I’ve never owned G D G A car to me is just a bicycle with fancy lights and chrome.
[Chorus 2]
C G Yeah, black road roll on forever big wheels keep turning round A7 D I’m close to God out on the road but I’m just truckin’ round C G C So don’t ever try to hobble me or I’d wither like a weed. G D G** You know highway’s are pasture where a traveller has to feed. Oh yeah.
