[G]Black road, Georgia tr[C]ees
[G]Midnight moon just stay with [C]me
[G]Like a lighthouse in the s[C]ky
[G]And let these eighteen wheels f[C]ly
[D]I woke up this morning[C] in a Motel Five
[D]Brokenhearted, I'm gonna dr[C]ive through t[G]he night
[C]Down the open road [G][C]
I asked her where we stood
She said Johnny this ain't no good
You made the highway your home
And I'm just tired of living alone
So you go your way, and I'll go mine
And maybe one day, you'll find what you're looking for
Down the open road
[C]Down the open road [G][C][G][C]
BRIDGE:
[A]I've been down this road many time
And Lord I've tr[C]ied to f[A]ind
[A]Some peace of heart, some peace of mind
But this r[C]oad just winds and w[D]inds
[G] [C] [G] [C]
[A]There's a crazy lady with high-heeled sh[D]oes
[A]She could take away my homesick bl[D]ues
[A]And lately I feel a little crazy t[D]oo
[A]Yes I do ma'am, yes I do [D]
[E]Got a double sleeper,[D] I'm hell on wheels
[E]Come on sweet thing, show me h[D]ow love [A]feels
[D]Down the open r[A]oad
[D]Down the open r[A]oad
[D]Down the open r[A]oad [D][E][D][A][D]
[A]Somewhere d[D]own the o[G]pe[D]n
ro[A]ad
She don't break down, she don't run cold
She's h[D]eart and soul like a pot of gold
She sees the wh[A]ite lines when I'm driving blind
A h[D]undred more miles and she's ri[G]ght [D]on [A]time
Right on t[D]ime
She's right on t[A]ime, right on [D]time (Down the [G]ope[D]n r[A]oad)
(Repeat chords to fade-out)
