The song is in the same chord the whole song

But this riff is what gives it the sound:

E-----------------

B-----------------

G-----------------

D-----------------

A-0---0-3-00---0--

E---3--------3----

A

There’s a truck turned over on the highway

A

Flares burning out of the snow

A

Freezing rain in the passing lane

A

I got forty five miles to go

Forty five miles, forty five miles

That’s gonna take all night

Should have known right away that something was wrong

When I started thinking things were all right, things were not all right

My old man’s sick, my sister’s going broke

They’re closing down my favorite bar

I got a smoker’s cough and now to top it all off

I think I’m gonna wreck my car, I’m gonna wreck my car

They say life goes in phases like seasons

I say something about all of them sucks

It’s as hard to be hot as it is to be cold

You’re either out of control or you’re stuck, you’re either out of control or you’re stuck

So take whatever road that you want to

Careful of the ice and the snow

I ain’t got time to change my mind

I got forty five miles to go

Forty five miles, forty five miles

Man that’s gonna take all night

I should have known right away that something was wrong

When I started thinking things were all right, things are not all right
