He’s pulling ou[C]t for Reno

Waking up [G]sleepy eyes
He says there’s something about a [D]highway
Telling him he [G]can’t stay

And when it’s all [C]over
He’ll move a little [G]slower
He’ll back up to the [D]trailer

And watch the sun start [G]sinking down
Still just lighting up the [D]road signs
Getting ready for the next [G]time.
