[Verse]
E Esus4 E           Esus4         E                         
■ ■     ■ I'm gonna give 'em that two four four on the floor
     E                                
Like an outlaws boys on the day before
        E                                      
Got the pretty girls out there begging for more
      E                                   
Gotta give 'em all what they came here for
E                             
Doin' my thing singing my song
E                                
Right on track I'm chugging along
    E                           
I'm here and gone like yesterday
E                                
Rolling like an old freight train
                                      A         E  
On a wing and a prayer in a glorified greyhound bus


[Chorus]
       E                                                 
Flying down the road running ninezero and kicking up dust
A                         
Drinkin' truck stop coffee
         A                             
Countin' birds on those telephone wires
            E           
Burnin' the midnight oil
        E                                 
And the tread off these Old Goodyear tires


[Verse]
                        E                         
I'm gonna give 'em that two four four on the floor
     E                                
Like an outlaws boys on the day before
    E                                          
Got the pretty girls out there begging for more
      E                                  
Gotta give em all what they came here for
E                             
Doin' my thing singing my song
E                                
Right on track I'm chugging along
    E                           
I'm here and gone like yesterday
                A           E    
Rolling like an old freight train


[Chorus]
    Dbm                    A             E   
And sometimes my mind is a million miles away
              Dbm             A                      E    
I know you're sound asleep at home while I'm on this stage
        Gbm        
And I'm missing you
              A           E       
Wishing I was kissing you everyday
                      Gbm    
But girl I gotta keep rollin'
A                                
Rollin' like an old freight train


[Solo]

[Bridge]
           Gbm                  
And it's a mighty lonesome sound
             A              
When there's not soul around
E                         
To help you ease your pain
                   Gbm    
But you gotta keep rollin'
A                           E    
Rollin' like an old freight train


[Chorus]
                   E                              
I'm gonna give 'em that two four four on the floor
     E                                
Like an outlaws boys on the day before
        E                                      
Got the pretty girls out there begging for more
      E                                   
Gotta give 'em all what they came here for
E                             
Doin' my thing singing my song
E                                
Right on track I'm chugging along
    E                           
I'm here and gone like yesterday
                A           E    
Rolling like an old freight train
E                      
Comin' on down the line
E                            
Feel that diesel engine whine
E                                         
Smell the smoke stack hear the gears grind
     E                                 
Full steam ahead halfway out of my mind
    E                                    
I'm too far gone to be turning back going
E                                      
Clickity clack down the railroad tracks
E                               
I'm here and gone like yesterday
                A           E    
Rolling like an old freight train
             A           E    
Just like an old freight train
                     A    G    E     E7 E
Tell me do you wanna ride this train ■  ■
