A                 E
Take me down that line

A                    E
Gonna tow that heavy load

A               E
I can't seem to make it

A             E
Make it on my own

A                    E
Turn the lights down low now

A             E
Turn down our bed

A               E
I can't seem to get you

A         E
Out of my head
[Chorus]
A                E
Stranded here in Bakersfield

D                      A         E
You're so close yet so far, far away

A                E
Stranded here in Bakersfield

D                       A    E
You're a million miles away, yeah
[Verse 2]
A                      E
I feel the heat coming down now

A               E
Sweat runs down my face

A            E
I can hardly fake it go

A                    E
Fake it through this day

A                       E
Was it something that I said

A                     E
Or something I didn't do

A             E
Eighteen more hours, girl

A                E
'Til I'm home to you
[Chorus 2]
A                E
Stranded here in Bakersfield

D                      A         E
You're so close yet so far, far away

A                E
Stranded here in Bakersfield

D                       A    E
You're a million miles away, yeah
[Solo] A E D A E A E D A E A E D A E [Bridge]
A                         E
So I walk out that lonely truck stop

                     D
With my head hanging down

          A                            E
Wondering how in the hell I got myself into this mess

A                                             E
And more importantly how I was going to get myself out of it

             D
So I wrote a song for you baby girl

      A                        E
And I hope when I return home

    A
The locks ain't changed on the doors

            E
And there's still a spot for me

        D                  A         E
On that big ol' California king size bed
[Solo 2] A E D A E [Chorus 3]
A                E
Stranded here in Bakersfield

D                      A         E
You're so close yet so far, far away

A                E
Stranded here in Bakersfield

D                       A    E
You're a million miles away, yeah

A                        E
Won't you come see me in Bakersfield?

D                            A             E
