1.I[D]'d rather be home,
But I make my livin' on the[G] go[D]
Big silver eagle spreads her wings
And drops u[E]s at another show[A]
I th[D]ink about holdin' my baby tonight
As I liste[G]n to the big wheels roll[D]
Three days into a six-week tour,
G[G]etting in the rhythm of [A]the road[D]
2.We pick and sing,
Say "goodnight" then we'll be flyin'
My world's a chain of one-night-stands
Strung together by the center line
I don't know where I'll wake up tomorrow,
But I can't let the tempo slow
Every town is just another beat,
livin' in the rhythm of the road
(Chorus)
Th[G]e rhythm of the road's got a mind of its own
If you find it it'll drive you insane
Like the [D]clackity-clack of a railroad track
I'm rattlin' like an old freight train[D7]
To[G]wns are flashin' by, the folks are wavin' "hi"
They all start to look the same
Gotta stop f[E]or a minute, be glad I'm in it
Rem[A]ember just why I came
(Instrumental)
3.Those highway signs, Lord, they keep me on the move
I think about givin' it up sometimes,
And gettin' in a diff'ren groove
But I just let the days slide by,
Get goin' with the flow
A four/four beat's the only time I keep,
livin' in the rhythm of the road
A four/four beat's the only time I keep,
livin' in the rhythm of the road
Livin' in the rhythm of the road
