Am D7 Am D7 G Gb7 F7 E7 E7add9
Am D7 Well, you hate those diesels rollin' Am D7 And those Friday nights out bowlin' G Gb7 F7 E7 E7add9 When he's off for a twelve hour lay overnight Am D7 You wish you had a dollar Am D7 For every time he hollered that he's G Gb7 F7 E7 E7add9 Leaving and he's never comin' back Am D7 But the curtain laced below Am D7 And his hands on your pillow G Gb7 F7 E7 E7add9 And his trousers are hangin' on the chair Am D7 You're lyin' through your pain, babe Am D7 But you're gonna tell him he's your man G Gb7 F7 E7 E7add9 And you ain't got the courage to leave Am D7 He tells you that you're on his mind Am D7 You're the only one he's ever gonna find G Gb7 F7 E7 E7add9 It's kind-a special, understands his complicated soul Am D7 But the only place a man can breathe Am D7 And collect his thoughts is G Gb7 F7 E7 E7add9 Midnight and flyin' away on the road Am D7 But you've packed and unpacked Am D7 So many times you've lost track G Gb7 F7 E7 E7add9 And the steam heat is drippin' off the walls Am D7 But when you hear his engines Am D7 You're lookin' through the window in the kitchen and you know G Gb7 F7 E7 E7add9 You're always gonna be there when he calls Am D7 'Cause he's a truck drivin' man, Am D7 Stoppin' when he can Am D7 Am D7 He's a truck drivin' man, stoppin' when he can
