Tom: G
G C
Well it was mornin' when I left Alabama
D G
It must have been around in Mid July
C
I got behind a chicken truck from Georgia
D G
and the feathers was a flyin' like snow out of the sky... lord
C
I couldn't get up the speed enough to pass him
D G
and a funny smell was a gettin' close to me
C
and somethin' keeps on messin' up my windshield
D G
and the farther I go the harder it gets to see... lord
=====
G
Chicken truck chicken truck behind it I'm stuck
C
Chicken truck chicken truck it's just my luck
D G
Chicken truck on Highway Sixty-Five
Well the hens are a sqwakin' and the roosters are a crowin'
C
He's a slowin' me down when I need to keep goin'
D G
Chicken truck on Highway Sixty-Five
=====
Guitar/Piano Break:
G C D G
G C D G
=====
G C
Well he slowed down and I finally got around him
D G
On a big long hill just south of Tennesee
C
He had a box of Colonel Sanders on his dashboard
D G
He was eatin' fried chicken and a throwin the bones on me... yeah

REPEAT CHORUS
