D
I know it’s late, I’m somewhere near the border between
Bm
Quebec and Maine and the phone was out of order
GA
At the rest stop so I pulled your picture from the glove box and I taped it to the
D
Middle of the steering wheel just to show you I was thinking of you
BmGA
I couldn’t feel my fingers by the time I found a pay phone that would send me back a dial tone.
Chorus:
GABmA cold good night by the headlights
GADA cold good night my love
I know it’s hard working overtime down at the diner
Doing your part to keep our heads above the water
Sometime I wish you didn’t have to be mine and you could have a man
who didn’t drive a truck farther than someone should have to drive it
Barely provides for a family and I realize you’re sleeping and I’ve got to get to Cleveland
ChorusEmA
I’ll be home in a couple days
BmA
So you won’t have to miss me and I won’t have to say
