Am            C 
Diesel powers 18 wheels to rolling 

   D7                       Am 
As I pull it on to the Interstate

There won't be no sleep for me tonight no

      Am              G7 
I'm a prisoner of the highway 

D7                       Am 
Driven on by my restless soul

D7                           Am 
Prison by the freedom of the road

California wines into Birmingham 

F                     G7    Am 
Some people work just to survive yeah 

F                              E7 
But up here in this cab that's when I'm most alive 


      Am              G7 
I'm a prisoner of the highway 

D7                       Am 
Driven on by my restless soul

Prison by the freedom of the road 

  
D7 
Got a wife living back in Tennessee 

                                      Am 
And she tries to understand the way I feel 

D7 
I could give my hands to another line of work 

       F                                E7 
But my heart would always be behind the wheel 

          Am              G7 
Call me a prisoner of the highway 

D7                       Am 
Driven on by my restless soul 


                      G7 
I'm a prisoner of the highway

Prison by the freedom of the road 

                                      G7 
Don't you know I'm a  prisoner of the highway 

D7                       Am 
Driven on by my restless soul 


                          G7 
Call me a prisoner of the highway 

D7                           Am 
Prison by the freedom of the road
