[Verse]
Ab         Ab7     
New Jersey turnpike
Ab                      
■  Ridin' on a wet night
            Ab             
Beneath the refinery's glow
                            Ab         
Out where those great black rivers flow
Abm         Ab7          Ab
■   License registration ■ 
Abm         Ab      
■   I ain't got none
                  Ab        
But I got a clear conscience
                 Ab            
About the things that I've done
Ab7                     
■   Mister State Trooper
             Ab7    
Please don't stop me
             Ab7    
Please don't stop me
Abm          Ab7    
Please don't stop me
             Abm      
Maybe you've got a kid
                   Abm        
Maybe you've got a pretty wife
Ab7 Abm                      Ab7       
■   Well the only thing that I've got's
                     Ab7       
Been botherin' me my whole life


[Chorus]
             Ab7    
Mister State Trooper
Abm                     
■   Please don't stop me
                  Ab7
Please don't stop me 
             Ab7    
Please don't stop me


[Verse]
                    Ab7  
Well in the wee wee hours
               Ab7 
Your mind gets hazy
            Ab7   
Radio relay towers
                    Ab7 
Gonna lead me to my baby
        Ab7      
Radio's jammed up
               Ab7     
With talk show stations
               Ab7      
Just talk talk talk talk
                   Ab7     
'til you lose your patience


[Chorus]
             Ab7    
Mister State Trooper
             Ab7    
Please don't stop me
             Ab7    
Please don't stop me
             Ab7    
Please don't stop me
    Ab7               
Hey somebody out there
             Ab7        
Listen to my last prayer
      Ab7    
Hi ho silvero
                Ab7    
Deliver me from nowhere


[Outro]
Abm Ab B Ab
