D

1.I'd rather be home,

G D

But I make my livin' on the go

Big silver eagle spreads her wings

E A

And drops us at another show

D

I think about holdin' my baby tonight

G D

As I listen to the big wheels roll

Three days into a six-week tour,

G A D

Getting in the rhythm of the road

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)

G

The rhythm of the road's got a mind of its own

If you find it it'll drive you insane

D

Like the clackity-clack of a railroad track

D7

I'm rattlin' like an old freight train

G

Towns are flashin' by, the folks are wavin' "hi"

They all start to look the same

E

Gotta stop for a minute, be glad I'm in it

A

Remember 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
