Prisoner of the Highway - Ronnie Milsap
[Em]Diesel powers 1[G]8 wheels to rollin'
as I [A] pull it on to the Inter[Em]state
I've got [Em] 13 hours to [G]make my destination
And I [A] don't want to stop to check my [B]weight
[C]There won't be no s[D]leep for me toni[Em]ght No[D]
I've [C]got to be hittin' Tulsa by [B7]first morning light
Chorus:
I'm a [Em]prisoner of the [D]highway
[A]Driven on by my restless [Em]soul
Call me a prisoner of the [D]highway
[A]Prison by the freedom of the [Em]road
[Em]I've run freight out of [G](Preeling)? West Virgina
[A]And US Steel from Memphi[Em]s
I've rode tobacco [G]out of the Carolina's
[A]California wines into Burmingh[B7]am
[C]Some people work just t[D]o surv[Em]ive Yeah[D]
[C]But up here in this cab that's w[B7]hen I'm most alive
I'm a [Em]prisoner of the [D]highway
[A]Driven on by my restless [Em]soul
Call me a prisoner of the [D]highway
[A]Prison by the freedom of the [Em]road[D] [A] [Em]
Break:
[A] Got a wife living back in Tennessee
And she tries to understand the way I fe[Em]el[G]
[A]I could give my hands to another line of work
But[/B] my [C]heart would always be behind the [B7]wheel
Call me a [Em]prisoner of the [D]highway
[A]Driven on by my restless [Em]soul
I'm a prisoner of the [D]highway
[A]Prison by the freedom of the [Em]road
Don't you know I'm a prisoner of the [D]highway
[A]Driven on by my restless [Em]soul
Call me a prisoner of the [D]highway
A Em . . .
Prison by the freedom of the road
