     Em 
On a long and lonesome highway, east of Omaha 
        Dsus2 
You can listen to the engine moanin' out his one long song 
        Asus4                                                      Em 
You can think about the woman or the girl you knew the night before 
         Em 
But your thoughts will soon be wandering, the way they always do 
            Dsus2 
When you're ridin' sixteen hours and there's nothin' much to do 
        Asus4                                                        Em 
And you don't feel much like ridin', you just wish the trip was through
[Chorus]
       Dsus2      Em 
Here I am, on the road again 
        Dsus2    Em 
There I am, up on the stage 
       Dsus2           Asus4 
Here I go, playin' the star again 
        C  Dsus2      Em 
There I go.  Turn the page
[Verse]
       Em 
So you walk into this restaurant, all strung out from the road 
        Dsus2 
And you feel the eyes upon you, as you're shakin' off the cold 
       Asus4                                                Em 
You pretend it doesn't bother you, but you just want to explode 
           Em 
Yeah, most times you can't hear 'em talk, other times you can 
        Dsus2 
All the same old cliches, is it woman? Is it man? 
        Asus4                                              Em 
And you always seem outnumbered, you don't dare make a stand 
  
Make your stand
[Chorus]
       Dsus2      Em 
Here I am, on the road again 
        Dsus2    Em 
There I am, up on the stage 
       Dsus2           Asus4 
Here I go, playin' the star again 
        C  Dsus2      Em 
There I go.  Turn the page
[Verse]
Em 
Out there in the spotlight, you're a million miles away 
      Dsus2 
Every ounce of energy, you try and give away 
       Asus4                                                Em 
As the sweat pours out your body, like the music that you play 
Em 
Later in the evening, as you lie awake in bed 
         Dsus2 
With the echoes of the amplifiers ringin' in your head 
    Asus4                                                   Em 
You smoke the day's last cigarette, rememberin' what she said 
  
(What she said)

[Chorus]
       Dsus2      Em 
Here I am, on the road again 
        Dsus2    Em 
There I am, up on the stage 
           Dsus2           Asus4 
And here I go, playin' the star again 
        C  Dsus2      Em 
There I go.  Turn the page  
        C  Dsus2        Em 
There I go.  Turn that page 
        C            Dsus2 
There I go-o-o, yeah yeah 
           Em 
There I go-o, yeah yeah
[Outro]
Dsus2        Em 
  
        Dsus2      Em 
There I go, yeah 
       Dsus2       Em 
Here I go, yeah 
        C    Dsus2            Em 
There I go-o-o     There I go-o 
  
(And I'm gone)
