[Verse 1]
All Fthrough northern COregon
AlF-ways at my C- side
SleepF-ing in those Am- narrow beds
And then we'd G- rideG7  
[Verse 2]
DrinkF-ing in those C- dirty bars
Keep F- ing out of C- sight
Sleep F- ing in that Am- cold back seat
And then we'd G- rideG7  
[Bridge]
You know that F- damn road seemed like it went for C- ever
Ex F- haust fumes made our eyes turn red and C- swell
With our F- clothes stuck to the seat and to our Am- bodies
It was the - Gstinking summer trip thorough southern G7- hell
[Verse 3]
Eat F- ing carbonated C- crap
Churn F- ing up in C- side
Gas soaked F- Service Station Am- Johns
And then we'd G- rideG7  
[Verse 4]
Sil F- ence in the - front C- seat
Trying not F- to start a C- fight
Qui F- et have hid Am- crying
And then we'd G- rideG7  
[Bridge]
You know you can F- grow to hate these crummy little one horse C- towns
With the F- seamy movie houses long C- closed down
No F- where to go from here but up or Am- down that road
Noth G- ing over there but the same damned G7- town
[Verse 5]
Ano F- ther sour cof C- fee cup
One more F- piece of cardboard C- pie
Buy a tooth F- brush and a Am- change of clothes
And then we'd G- rideG7
