Tom: G Verso 1: G There's a road, in Oklahoma F Straighter than a preacher C G Longer than a memory G And it goes forever onward F Been a good teacher C G for a lot of country boys like me Verso 2: G I push that load, from here to someday F I'll push as long as I'm alive C G but I don't know how long I'll last G 'cause it's just a road, it aint no highway F I'm blowing by the double five C G I know I'm going way too fast Refrão: G C G I been down this road just searching for the end D C G D It don't go nowhere, it just brings you back again G G Leaves you lonely and cold, standin' on the shoulder D F But you've come too far to go back home C G So you're walking on a nowhere road Verso 3: G Some folks say, if you keep rollin' F And keep it on the yellow line C G It'll take you to the big highway G But there's a toll to pay, if you're going F The keeper of the gate is blind C G So you better be prepared to pay (Refrão)
