Capo 2 Runnin' The Roadblocks Chris Hillman
[Intro]
A A A A
[Verse 1]
A D
Headlights in my face, there's a roadblock up ahead,
A E
I've been toolin' down to tooley, coming home just like I said,
A D
Doin' 90 in a speed trap, they won't catch me from behind,
A E A A
I've been drivin' myself crazy, big wheel makin' up time.
[Chorus 1]
D A
Like a thief in the night, there's no turnin' back,
E A
Runnin' down the highway, you know I'm ahead of the pack,
D A G F
Like a man out on a stakeout, veering 'til the bor . . der . . .
A D E A
Well I'm a runnin' the road blocks to get back home to you.
[Interlude]
A D A E A D A E A A
[Verse 2]
A D
Pavement screams, beneath my tires, like there's some fool to tell,
A E
Callin' on the squad cars, lies at the set of the Golden L,
A D
Ranger said pull over, fat chance, I'm at the wheel,
A E A A
The night is crisp you can see their fist, everybody's after me.
[Chorus 2]
D A
Like a thief in the night, there's no turnin' back,
E A
Runnin' down the highway, you know I'm ahead of the pack,
D A G F
Like a man out on a stakeout, veering 'til the bor . . der . . .
A D E A
I'm a runnin' the road blocks to get back home to you.
[Outro]

I'm a runnin' the road blocks to get back home to you.
