Intro E X 9  B X 4  E X 4 
EWell there's a lonesome feeling that comes over me
EWhen I hear that highway Bmoan.
EI know that's where the good lord meant for me to be
A dBreamin' drifter far from Ehome
EI roam from town to town out on the interstate
I'm always only passing tBhrough
EI need my womans love but she's so far away
EI'm siBnging the cowboy Eblues
chorus
EStranger dont'ya kGnow I'd like to Abe your fGriend
EIf I had the Gtime to sBtay
EBut im a tumbGleweed a blowlin' Ain the wGind
