E5 
On a long and lonesome highway, east of Omaha
        D5
You can listen to the engine moaning out its one note song
        A5                                                      E5
You can think about the woman or the girl you knew the night before

E5 
And your thoughts will soon be wandering the way they always do
          D5
When your riding sixteen hours and there's nothing much to do and 
    A5                                                               E5  
you don't feel much like travelling, you just wish the trip was through

E5         D5          E5                      D5             E5 
But here I am , on the road again. Well here I am , up on the stage
       D5           A5                   C5   D5        E5               
Here I go, playing star again. There I go, turn the page

E5
As you walk into the restaurant all strung out from the road
        D5
And you feel the eyes upon you, as your shaking off the cold
       A5                                                   E5 
You pretend it doesn't bother you but you just want to explode

E5
Sometimes you hear 'em talking, other times you can't
        D5
All the same old clich?'s, is it a woman or a man
        A5                                              E5 
And you always seem outnumbered, you dare not make a stand
            
E5         D5          E5                      D5             E5 
But here I am , on the road again. Well here I am , up on the stage
       D5           A5                   C5   D5        E5               
Here I go, playing star again. There I go, turn the page

E5
Out there in the spotlight, you're a million miles away
      D5
Every ounce of energy, you try to give away
        A5                                                       E5
And the sweat pours from you're body, like the music that you play

E5
Later on that evening, as you lie wake in bed  
         D5
With the echoes from the amplifiers till ringing in your head
        A5                                                   E5
And you smoke the days last cigarette, remembering what you said

E5         D5          E5                      D5             E5 
But here I am , on the road again. Well here I am , up on the stage
       D5           A5                   C5   D5        E5               
Here I go, playing star again. There I go, turn the page

E5         D5          E5                      D5             E5 
But here I am , on the road again. Well here I am , up on the stage
       D5           A5                   C5   D5        E5               
Here I go, playing star again. There I go, turn the page, 
        C5   D5        E5 
There I go, turn the page.
