DSymbol crash, last call - 3 a.m.
GJackson, Mississippi, I will see you again
CNext stop, Terre Haute
GWon't be no motel to Dnight
Well, ol' 55, it's been a long while
GSince then we've both gone a few miles
Seems like Cevery time we meet
You take a Gnother piece off of my Dlife
Well, if I'm Gragged 'round the edges
And look a little hard
DLife ain't easy on this honky-tonk star
ASpent my soul in a thousand dives
DI've been on this highway since '75
GMama begged me to put the guitar down
DI shoulda listened, but it's Bmtoo late now
ALeft that barn in a beat up Cadillac
DI hit the road and the road hit back
Well, I Dfell in with a woman down in Baton Rouge
GNeat around the eyes, and farm-raised, too
CThere for a moment, GI saw babies and Ddogs
But a dog this old, can't learn nothin' new
GLettin' you know it's all I can do
To Cface another smoky room
GSing another heartbreak Dsong
Well, if I'm Gragged 'round the edges
And look a little hard
DLife ain't easy on this honky-tonk star
ASpent my soul in a thousand dives
DI've been on this highway since '75
GMama begged me to put the guitar down
DI shoulda listened, but it's Bmtoo late now
ALeft that barn in a beat up Cadillac
DI hit the road and the road hit back
Well, if I'm Gragged 'round the edges
And look a little hard
DLife ain't easy on this honky-tonk star
ASpent my soul in a thousand dives
DI've been on this highway since '75
GMama begged me to put the guitar down
DI shoulda listened, but it's Bmtoo late now
ALeft that barn in a beat up Cadillac
DI hit the road and the road hit back
AThought I knew it all, but I didn't know Jack
DI hit the road and the road hit back

G D

Won't be no motel to night

Well, ol' 55, it's been a long while

Since then we've both gone a few miles

Seems like every time we meet

G D

You take a nother piece off of my life

Well, if I'm ragged 'round the edges

And look a little hard

Life ain't easy on this honky-tonk star

Spent my soul in a thousand dives

I've been on this highway since '75

Mama begged me to put the guitar down

D Bm

I shoulda listened, but it's too late now

Left that barn in a beat up Cadillac

I hit the road and the road hit back

Well, I fell in with a woman down in Baton Rouge

Neat around the eyes, and farm-raised, too

C G D

There for a moment, I saw babies and dogs

But a dog this old, can't learn nothin' new

Lettin' you know it's all I can do

To face another smoky room

G D

Sing another heartbreak song

Well, if I'm ragged 'round the edges

And look a little hard

Life ain't easy on this honky-tonk star

Spent my soul in a thousand dives

I've been on this highway since '75

Mama begged me to put the guitar down

D Bm

I shoulda listened, but it's too late now

Left that barn in a beat up Cadillac

I hit the road and the road hit back

Well, if I'm ragged 'round the edges

And look a little hard

Spent my soul in a thousand dives

I've been on this highway since '75

Mama begged me to put the guitar down

D Bm

I shoulda listened, but it's too late now

Left that barn in a beat up Cadillac

I hit the road and the road hit back

Thought I knew it all, but I didn't know Jack
