      Oh-hoh-hoh-hoh-yeah 
             D                                           
      It's a long straight road and the engine is deep 
        G                                                
      I can't help thinkin' of a good night's sleep 
              A                                           D 
      And the long long roads of my li-ife were a callin' me 
 
      These rough old hands are a-glued to the wheel 
      My eyes full of sand from the way they feel 
      And the lights comin' over the hill are a-blindin' me 
 
      It's a long tough haul from a-way down south 
      A man's gotta find a little bread for his mouth 
      And a home for a girl as sweet as my honey can be 
 
      So it's down through the gears, she's a startin' to pull 
      The gauge on the tank is a-showin' they're full 
      And the lights comin' over the hill are a-blindin' me 
 
              A                                             D  
      There's rain on the road, I can feel the load start a-shiftin' 
      I-i-in a dance 
          A                                                   D 
      Too late, I see the post and I haven't got a coast of a chance 
      Ah-hah-hah-no 
          D                                       
      The windscreen wipers are a-beatin' in time 
          G                                    
      The song they sing is a part of my mind 
            A                                        D 
      And I can't believe it's a-really happenin' to me 
 
      Oh, but I'm over the edge and down the mountain side 
      I know they'll tell about the night I died 
      In the rain when the lights on the hill were a-blindin' me 
      Hey! 
 
      There's rain on the road, I can feel the load start a shiftin' 
      I-i-in a dance 
      Too late, I see the post and I haven't got a coast of a chance 
      Ah-hah-hah-no 
 
      The windscreen wipers are a-beatin' in time 
      The song they sing is a part of my mind 
      And I can't believe it's a-really happenin' to me 
 
      Oh, but I'm over the edge and down the mountain side 
      I know they'll tell about the night I died 
      In the rain when the lights on the hill were a-blindin' me 
      In the rain when the lights on the hill were a-blindin' me
