Steve Earle - Nowhere Road Chords

verse 1
 
G
There's a road, in Oklahoma
F
Straighter than a preacher
C             G
Longer than a memory
G
And it goes forever onward
F
Been a good teacher
C                         G
for a lot of country boys like me
 
verse 2
 
G
I push that load, from here to someday
F
I'll push as long as I'm alive
C                         G
but I don't know how long I'll last
G
'cause it's just a road, it aint no highway
F
I'm blowing by the double five
C                    G
I know I'm going way too fast
 
Chourus
G          C               G
I been down this road just searching for the end
D          C                 G               D
It don't go nowhere, it just brings you back again
G                     G
Leaves you lonely and cold, standin' on the shoulder
D                          F
But you've come too far to go back home
C                      G
So you're walking on a nowhere road
 
verse 3
G 
Some folks say, if you keep rollin'
F
And keep it on the yellow line
C                         G
It'll take you to the big highway
G
But there's a toll to pay, if you're going
F
The keeper of the gate is blind
C                         G
So you better be prepared to pay

Chorus
