Roll On (Eighteen Wheeler) Capo 2
CHORUS:
D G D G
Roll on highway, roll on along, Roll on daddy till you get back home
D G D Em A
Roll on family, roll on crew, Roll on momma like I asked you to do, And roll on eighteen-wheeler, roll on.
VERSE:
D Bm
Well, it's Monday morning, he's kissin momma goodbye, He's up and gone with the sun
G D
Daddy drives an eighteen-wheeler, and he's off on a midwest run
D Bm
As three sad faces gather round momma, they ask her when daddy's comin home
G D
Daddy drives an eighteen-wheeler And they sure miss him when he's gone (yeah they do)
G D Em A
Ah, but he calls them every night, And he tells them that he loves them, And he taught them this song to sing.
D G D G
Roll on highway, roll on along, Roll on daddy till you get back home
D G D Em A
Roll on family, roll on crew, Roll on momma like I asked you to do, And roll on eighteen-wheeler, roll on.
Capo Up To 3RD Fret
D Bm
Well, it's Wednesday evening, momma's waitin by the phone, It rings but it's not his voice
G D
Seems the highway patrol has found a jackknifed rig, In a snow bank in Illinois
D Bm
But the driver was missin And the search had been abandoned. Cause the weather had everything stalled
G D
And they had checked all the houses and the local motels, When they had some more news they'd call
G D Em A
And she told them when they found him, To tell him that she loved him, And she hung up the phone singin.
D G D G
Roll on highway, roll on along, Roll on daddy till you get back home
D G D Em A
Roll on family, roll on crew, Roll on momma like I asked you to do, And roll on eighteen-wheeler, roll on.
Bridge:
Bm F
Momma and the children will be waiting up all night long
G D
Thinkin' nothing but the worst is comin With the ringin of the telephone
Bm G
Oh, but the man upstairs was listening When momma asked him to bring daddy home
Em A
And when the call came in it was daddy on the other end Askin' her if she had been singin the song, singin.
D G D G
Roll on highway, roll on along, Roll on daddy till you get back home
D G D Em A
Roll on family, roll on crew, Roll on momma like I asked you to do, And roll on eighteen-wheeler, roll on.
Outro:
D G D G D G D G D
Eighteen-wheeler, Eighteen-wheeler, Eighteen-wheeler, Eighteen-wheeler, Roll on, Roll on...
