Verse 1
[Cadd9]I don't hang around town
[Em]I never keep my landing gear down
[Cadd9]I love a good motel and the [G]burning smell of [D]wheels on ground
[Cadd9]I dont go where I go
[Em]Just cause there's money on the road
[Cadd9]It's a ramblin way its the [G]same today as [D]it was long ago
Chorus
[G]I got holes in the soles of my redwing boots
[Em]A long way to go before the day is through
[Cadd9]my back to the wind, [G]scruff on my chin, [D]my hat pulled down low
[G]I got three hundred horses beneath my hood
[Em]More stars at night than in Hollywood
[Cadd9]The road lets me be a [G]hawk on the breeze i[D]t just goes on and on
Like an [Cadd9]outlaw on the run my g[G]uitar for a gun i[Cadd9]f only he were [D]here [Cadd9]today
What would Jesse James say
Verse 2
[Cadd9]I've seen little cafes
[Em]Blowing through towns with no names
[Cadd9]I put gas in my truck with the l[G]ast couple bucks from the [D]jar on the stage
[Cadd9]There's a girl that I need
[Em]But shes probably going to leave
[Cadd9]Shes not to blame any [G]girl would do the same wi[D]th a drifter like me
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
[Em]Running hard through the big black sky
[Cadd9]There's no one else in the desert tonight
[Em]I get the feeling running through my vains
[Cadd9]I wonder if he ever felt the [D]same
Repeat Chorus
[Cadd9]I don't hang around town
[Em]I never keep my landing gear down
[Cadd9]I love a good motel and the [G]burning smell of [D]wheels on ground
[Cadd9]I dont go where I go
