Side of the Road
Miller/West
INTRO: D G D A D
Left my [D]bank book and a credit card, a good car with a full tank of gas
[G]Watch me loose and hangin' on to things that make you hang on to the past
Ah, [D]she's the only reason I was neck deep in that over time each day
And if s[A]he don't love me anymore I ain't got one good reason left to [D]stay
CHORUS:
So I'll [G]walk a little farther, convince myself I'm really goin' [D]somewhere
The [A]wind from the big rigs nearly knocks me off my feet
And leaves me [D]wadin' thru the diesel in the air
And the [G]last few days the weather has been on my side but all day long it's [D]rain[Bm]
And [D]no one gives a ride to a [A]man on the side of the [G]road these [D]days
INTRO
Huddled 'neath this overpass, everything I own is soakin' wet
I've been prayin' for some tender heart to pick me up but it ain't happenin' yet
I don't blame the cars that pass me by, in these times you can't really trust no one
I found that out four days ago when I left her lyin' in another's arms
CHORUS
SOLO: G D A D
Now it [G]used to be if a man was free his thumb could take him any [D]place[Bm]
But [D]no one gives a ride to a [A]man on the side of the [G]road these [D]days
No one gives a damn about a[A] man on the side of the [G]road these [D]days
