Capo 4th fret                
 
 
D5                       A5  
Way on past the boulevards  
G5             D5                        
Out here underneath the stars  
G5                         A5                 D5        G5 A5  
I've been flying past the houses, farms and fields  
D5             A5  
Leaving all I know back there  
G5                   D5                      
Rushing through the cold night air  
G5                     A5               D5          G5 A5  
And I'm holding on to nothin' but the wheel  
D5                    A5  
Staying clear of the interstate   
G5                     D5                    
I'm seeking out those old two lanes  
G5           A5               D5      G5 A5  
Trying to explain the way I feel  
D5                     A5  
Till all at once it's half past three  
         G5                  D5                       
And it's down...to just the trucks and me  
G5                     A5               D5         G5 A5  
And I'm holding on to nothin' but the wheel  
A5                                    D5  
I've been trying to drive you off my mind  
G5              A5          D5              A5  
Maybe that way baby I can leave it all behind  
    D5              A5  
And forty-one goes on and on  
        G5                 D5                       
And the lights go winding in the dawn  
G5                   A5               D5        G5 A5  
The sky's the color now of polished steel  
        D5            A5  
And the only thing I know for sure  
   G5                    D5                
Is if you don't want me anymore  
G5                      A5               D5      G5 A5  
Then I'm holding on to nothin' but the wheel

        D5            A5  
And the only thing I know for sure  
      G5                 D5                
Is if you don't want me anymore  
G5                      A5               D5       F#5 G5 A5 A5 (one strum each)   
Then I'm holding on to nothin' but the wheel  
G5                 A5               D5  
I'm holding on to nothin' but the wheel
