And I followed that voice down the lost highway

On thirty-seven dollars and a jap guitar

D
Hey pretty baby don't you know it ain't my fault

   C                            G
I love to hear the steel belts hummin' on the asphalt

D
Wake up in the middle of the night in a truck stop

C                         D7 (or D)
Stumble in the restaurant wonderin' why I don't stop

G
Gotta keep rockin' why I still can

                             C
I gotta two pack habit and a motel tan

But when my boots hit the boards I'm a brand new man

With my back to the riser I make my stand

(drums stop)

Hey pretty baby won't you hold me tight

                                     C            C G D (no riff here)
We're loadin' up and rollin' out of here tonight

D
One of these days I'm gonna settle down

C                                       G
And take you back with me to the Guitar Town
