Capo 3
D                G
 I play the road, 
        A              D
And the highway is our song, 
          G               D
And every city's like the same three chords 
     Em          A                         D A7sus4 D
Been helping us along when the story's told 
        G                  D
And the crowd has come and gone 
G               D         A                 D
Shaking off the miles and trying to make it home 
      G         D
Every exit is a season, 
      A           D
Every signal is a beacon
        G                D
And the wind, it carries me
       Em          A
And it eases up my load
     G              D
Everyday I drag the turns
      A            D
Every candle still burns 
          G             D
And every lesson I have learned 
          A             D
Brings us closer to the crowd 
D                G
 I play the road, 
        A              D
And the highway is our song, 
          G               D
And every city's like the same three chords 
     Em          A                         D A7sus4 D
Been helping us along when the story's told 
        G                  D
And the crowd has come and gone 
G               D         A                 D
Shaking off the miles and trying to make it home 
         G             D
Well the bus it is our steeple, 
          A         D
It brings us to the people 
    G                  D
And they will be there waiting, 
Em                A
Dancing young and old
          G              D
And every one of us gets tired,
          A               D
But every one remains inspired 
          G             D
And every one of us require 
         A                  D
To keep picking through our souls 
D                G
 I play the road, 
        A              D
And the highway is our song, 
          G               D
And every city's like the same three chords 
     Em          A                         D A7sus4 D
Been helping us along when the story's told 
        G                  D
And the crowd has come and gone 
G               D         A                 D
Shaking off the miles and trying to make it home 
           G                  A
She says, "Daddy where do you go 
          D       A         D
When you leave me all these nights 
       Em                          A
With a suitcase and guitar in your hand? 
G              A                  D    A     D
Kissing me and mom goodbye with a tear and a smile, 
Em
Where do you go, 
      G            A      B
Daddy where do you go?" 
                A
I play the road, 
         B              E
And this highway is our song, 
                 A        E
And every city's like the same three chords 
     F#         B                          E A E
Been helping us along when the story's told 
        A                 E
And the crowd is done and gone 
A               E         B                 E
Shaking off the miles and trying to make it home 
A               E
Shaking off the miles
                 B
(Shaking off the miles) 
            A
(Mile after mile) 
           B
Mile after mile 
                 A Am E
Baby, I'm coming home
