Verse 1:

Am I can see the lights of Fort Worth shinin' Am Twenty-five miles to the city line Am All night long this band's been drivin' Am C D Thirty-five minutes 'til showtime Am Met a little girl last night in Las Vegas Am Said goodbye to my last dime Am Now I'm livin' on next week's wages Am C D Long as we're workin' I'm doin' fine

Pre-Chorus

E Take me back to Tulsa E Put me on the last highway E We'll go honky tonkin' E But pretty woman I can't stay
A E And the wheels keep turnin' 'round A A7 D Headin' for another town A E Feelin' like a man alive E Oh let's kick it into overdrive

Verse 2:

Am Baton Rouge, D.C., Nashville, Tennessee Am Denver, Reno-Bound Am Up to Cincinnati and down to Miami Am C D Settin' up and breakin' down Am North and South Dakota, both the Carolina's Am C D Maine to New Mexico Am Missouri, Alabama, Kentucky and Nevada Am C D Georgia and Idaho

Pre-Chorus

E I'd stay a little longer E But tonight I'm movin' on E Honey you know I'm a travelin' man E And babe the race is on
A E And the wheels keep turnin' 'round A A7 D Headin' for another town A E Feelin' like a man alive E Oh let's kick it into overdrive Solo | Am | Am | Am | Am | | Am | Am | Am | C D | | Am | Am | Am | Am | | Am | Am | Am | C D |
