Intro chords:
G Em C D twice
[G]Every now and [Em]then he [C]has one of those [D]restless [G]nights[Em][C][D]
[G]So he [Em]sat up sipping [C]whiskey till he was [D]almost rig[G]ht[Em][C][D]
[C]Woke up this [D]morning with the [G]world [G/F#]flying [C]by
[G]Right or wrong the [D]highway is his [C]chosen way of life
[G] [Em] [C] [D]
Chorus:
[C]And all the [D]miles keep getting [G]longer
[C]And all the [D]towns look the [G]same
[C]Fun got [D]old [G]bein bought and [C]sold
[G]A man can get [D]sick of the [C]sound of his own name
He used to wonder what the big time would feel like
A thousand people screaming at him on a stage in the lights
He made lot of sacrifices trying to get here
It gets to where the crowd drowns out his music drinking beer
Chorus
And his old friends working that same old nine to five
Theyre sleeping in their own beds, But hes called to say goodnight
Son got his first hit, but it wasnt in the stands
Sometimes it feels like the real family is his band
