Em
On a long and lonesome highway East of Omaha
D
You can listen to the engines Moanin' out it's one note song
A Em
You can think about the woman Or the girl you knew the night before
Em
But your thoughts will soon be wanderin' The way they always do
D
When you're ridin' 1 hours And there's nothin' much to do
A Em
And you don't feel much like ridin' You just wish the trip was through
D Em
Here I am on the road again
D Em
There I am up on the stage
D A
There I go playin' star again
C D Em
There I go turn the page
Em
So you walk into this restaurant All strung out from the road
D
And you feel the eyes upon you As you're shakin' off the cold
A Em
You pretend it doesn't bother you But you just want to explode
Em
Yeah most times you can't hear 'em talk Other times you can
D
All the same old cliches Is it woman is it man
A Em
And you always seem outnumbered You don't dare make a stand
Make your stand
D Em
Here I am on the road again
D Em
There I am up on the stage
D A
There I go playin' star again
C D Em
There I go turn the page Whoa
Em
Out there in the spotlight You're a million miles away
D
Every ounce of energy You try and give away
A Em
As the sweat pours out your body Like the music that you play
Em
Later in the evenin' As you lie awake in bed
D
With the echoes of the amplifiers Ringin' in your head
A Em
You smoke the day's last cigarette Rememberin' what she said
What she said
D Em D Em D Em C D Em
D Em
Yeah here I am on the road again
D Em
There I am up on that stage
D A
There I go playin' star again
C D Em
There I go turn that page
C D Em
And there I go turn that page
C D Em
There I go yeah
C D Em
Here I go yeah yeah
C D Em
There I go yeah
C D Em
Here I go yeah
C D Em

C D Em
There I gooooooooooooo
And I'm gone
